DESCRIPTIONOF COMPANILACTOBACILLUS METRIOPTERAE COMB. NOV.

Companilactobacillusmetriopterae (me.tri.o.pte’rae. N.L. fem. gen. n. metriopterae of Metrioptera , thegenus of grasshoppers from which the type strain was isolated).

Basonym: Lactobacillus metriopterae Chiba et al. 2018, 1486 VP; the species includes strains previously described as Lactobacillus terrae Kim et al. 2018 [ 135, 136]

C. metriopterae forms an outgroup of Companilactobacillus and has thesmallest genome size (1.50 Mbp) and mol% G+C content (32.8); it seems to transition to an insect associated lifestyle. C. metriopterae is pigmented and ferments fewer carbohydrates than other companilactobacilli.

Isolated from the gut of grasshopper Metrioptera engelhardti , other isolates were obtained from soil.
