We report here the main characteristics of ‘Arabia massiliensis’ strain Marseille-P3078T gen. nov., sp. nov., ‘Gordonibacter massiliensis’ Marseille-P2775T sp. nov. and ‘Bacilliculturomica massiliensis’ strain Marseille-P3303 gen. nov., sp. nov. The culturomics approach combined with taxonogenomics was used to characterize these strains, which were all isolated from a faecal specimen of a 50-year-old Saudi Bedouin woman.
