Species description is based on a single isolate.
Gram-negative rods, 0.3-0.5 x 0.7-2.2 μm. Non-spore-forming.
Colonies are beige-coloured, 1 mm in diameter, convex and slightly dry on modified
Luria–Bertani agar after 48–72 h of incubation. Good growth occurs at 15–30 ºC
(optimum  about 30 ºC), at pH 6–8 (optimum pH 8) and in the presence of up to 1%
(w/v) NaCl (optimum 0.1% (w/v) NaCl). Aerobic, poor growth under anaerobic
conditions in the presence of nitrate.
Isolated from  freshwater of the Douro river, in Porto, Portugal.
Undetermined.
