Gram-positive straight to curved rods, 1.0-2.0/0.5-0.7 µm, occurred singly or in pairs.
Non-spore-forming. Non-motile.
Non-spore-forming. Non-motile.
Colonies on LB agar are round, 0.5–1.0 mm in diameter, yellowish, dry and rough,
with a distinct wrinkled morphology after 24 hours. Optimum growth at 37 ºC (25-40
ºC limits), pH 9.0 (7.0-11.0 limits) and with 10% NaCl in aerobiosis. Facultatively
anaerobic.
