Abstract: 
Two airborne bacterial isolates designated V45(T) and V54A(T) were characterized in order to determine their taxonomic position. 16S rDNA sequence analysis showed that the two isolates shared 98.1 % sequence similarity. Highest sequence similarities (98.0-98.5 %) were found to Promicromonospora citrea DSM 43110(T) and Promicromonospora sukumoe IFO 14650(T). Detection of a quinone system with the predominant compound MK-9(H(4)), a polar lipid pattern containing phosphatidylglycerol, a fatty acid profile with the predominant acids C(15 : 0) iso and C(15 : 0) anteiso and the diagnostic cell-wall diamino acid L-lysine supported the assignment of the novel isolates to the genus PROMICROMONOSPORA: The two isolates could be distinguished from P. sukumoe by the presence of glycine in the peptidoglycan, and the detection of the cell-wall sugar galactose differentiates them from the two established species of the genus PROMICROMONOSPORA: Each of the two isolates displayed a unique biochemical profile. Results from DNA-DNA hybridizations clearly demonstrated that V45(T) and V54A(T) represent separate species. Based on these data, it is proposed that V45(T) (=IFO 16525(T)=CCM 7044(T)) and V54A(T) (=IFO 16526(T) =CCM 7043(T)) be classified as the type strains of two novel Promicromonospora species, for which the names Promicromonospora vindobonensis sp. nov. and Promicromonospora aerolata sp. nov. are proposed.
