The invention discloses an extracellular polysaccharide lysobacter SCSIO 17111 with sand fixation effect and application thereof. The lysobacter SCSIO17111 was collected into Common Microorganism Center of China Committee for Culture Collection of Microorganisms (CCCCM ) on August 18th, 2018; the address is Institute of Microbiology, Chinese Academy of Sciences at No.3, No.1 Community, Beichen West Road, Chaoyang District, Beijing City; the collection number is CGMCC NO.14537. The lysobacter SCSIO17111 has the advantages that the sand particles can be agglomerated and the relative stable stateis maintained, so as to reach the sand fixation effect, and apply to the prevention and control of desertification in arid and semi-arid areas and the construction of reef biological soil crust. Compared with the physical sand fixation, chemical sand fixation and vegetation cultivation methods, the lysobacter SCSIO17111 has the advantages that by using the microorganism crust sand fixation type as the novel sand fixation type, the adaptability is strong, the cost is low, the effect is quick, and the like.
