<jats:p>Two actinomycete strains, TT2-10<jats:sup>T</jats:sup> and TT2-3, which produced long spore chains (more than 10 spores per chain), were isolated from peat swamp forest soil in Pattaloong Province, Thailand. Their taxonomic positions were determined using a polyphasic approach. The chemotaxonomic characteristics of these strains coincided with those of the family <jats:italic>Micromonosporaceae</jats:italic>, i.e. cell-wall chemotype II, muramic acid of the <jats:italic>N</jats:italic>-glycolyl type, whole-cell sugar pattern D and type II phospholipids. Analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequences also indicated that these strains constitute a distinct lineage within the family <jats:italic>Micromonosporaceae</jats:italic>, sharing 91.3–93.8 % sequence similarity with members of this family. On the basis of their phenotypic and genotypic characteristics and their phylogenetic position, these strains represent a novel genus and species, for which the name <jats:italic>Actinocatenispora thailandica</jats:italic> gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain of <jats:italic>Actinocatenispora thailandica</jats:italic> is strain TT2-10<jats:sup>T</jats:sup> (=JCM 12343<jats:sup>T</jats:sup>=PCU 235<jats:sup>T</jats:sup>=DSM 44816<jats:sup>T</jats:sup>).</jats:p>
