  <dc:description>&lt;div id="Abs1-section" class="c-article-section"&gt;&lt;div id="Abs1-content" class="c-article-section__content"&gt;&lt;p&gt;Four bacterial strains, with the capability of inhibiting&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;i&gt;Pseudogymnoascus destructans&lt;/i&gt;, the causative agent of white-nose syndrome, were isolated from male Townsend’s big-eared bats (&lt;i&gt;Corynorhinus townsendii&lt;/i&gt;, Family: Vespertilionidae) in New Mexico. Isolates AC161, AC162, AC208, and AC230&lt;sup&gt;T&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;were characterised as a novel clade using morphological, phenotypic and phylogenetic analysis. A draft genome of the type strain was completed to determine its taxonomy and secondary metabolite biosynthetic potential. Multi-locus sequence analysis nests AC230&lt;sup&gt;T&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;with neighbours&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;i&gt;Streptomyces scopuliridis&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;(NRRL B-24574&lt;sup&gt;T&lt;/sup&gt;),&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;i&gt;Streptomyces lushanensis&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;(NRRL B-24994&lt;sup&gt;T&lt;/sup&gt;),&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;i&gt;Streptomyces odonnellii&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;(NRRL B-24891&lt;sup&gt;T&lt;/sup&gt;) and&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;i&gt;Streptomyces niveus&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;(NRRL 2466&lt;sup&gt;T&lt;/sup&gt;). Further phylogenetic analysis showed the MLSA distances between AC230&lt;sup&gt;T&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;and its near neighbours are much greater than the generally accepted threshold (&amp;gt; 0.007) for bacterial species delineation. DNA–DNA relatedness between AC230&lt;sup&gt;T&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;and its near neighbours ranged between 25.7 ± 2.1 and 29.9 ± 2.4%. The DNA G+C content of the genomic DNA of the type strain is 71.7&amp;nbsp;mol%. Isolate AC230&lt;sup&gt;T&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;presents a white to ivory hue on most ISP media and its micromorphology exhibits ovoid spores with smooth surfaces in flexuous chains. Based on our study of AC230&lt;sup&gt;T&lt;/sup&gt;, the strain warrants the assignment to a novel species, for which the name&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;i&gt;Streptomyces corynorhini&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is AC230&lt;sup&gt;T&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;(= JCM 33171&lt;sup&gt;T&lt;/sup&gt;, = ATCC TSD155&lt;sup&gt;T&lt;/sup&gt;).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</dc:description>
