Comparative studies of morphology, chemical classification and Agricultural Sciences, phylogenetic analysis based on the 165 rRNA sequences among the four type 83000 Wulumuqi, Xinjiang, strains of the genus Actinobispora and type strains of related genera were China carried out. The results indicated that the genus Actinobispora is different from these other genera and should be placed in the family Pseudonocardiaceae Embley et a/. 1988 with the genera , , Saccharomonospora, and A ctinopolyspora. On the bases of these results, three new species under the names of Actinobispora alaniniphila sp. nov., Actinobispora aurantiaca sp. nov. and Actinobispora xinjiangensis sp. nov. are proposed; the type strains are CCTCC AA970OlT, CCTCC AA97002l and CCTCC AA97020T.

INTRODUCTION with , Amycolatopsis, Pseudono- cardia, Saccharomonospora, Saccharopolyspora, The description of the genus Actinobispora has been Micropolyspora and Actinopolyspora (Jiang et al., published previously by Jiang et al. (1991). It is 1995; Miyadoh, 1997). The results of chemotaxonomic characterized by the formation of longitudinally paired and phylogenetic analysis of some related genera with spores on both the vegetative and the aerial mycelium, wall chemotype IV and absence of mycolic acid, such absence of mycolic acid and having cell wall chemotype as Saccharothrix, Amycolata, Kibdelosporangium, IV.
