%X Nine strains of a Rodentibacter-related bacterium were isolated over a period of 38 years from a laboratory mouse (Mus musculus), seven laboratory rats (Rattus norvegicus) and a Syrian hamster (Mesocricetus auratus) in Düsseldorf and Heidelberg, Germany. The isolates are genotypically and phenotypically distinct from all previously described Rodentibacter species. Sequence analysis of 16S rRNA and rpoB gene sequences placed the isolates as a novel lineage within the genus Rodentibacter. In addition to the single-gene analysis, the whole genome sequence of the strain 1625/19T revealed distinct genome-to-genome distance values to the other Rodentibacter species. The genomic DNA G+C content of strain 1625/19T was 40.8 mol
