Gram-negative rods, 0.6-1.0 x 1.5-3.0 µm. Motile by peritrichous flagella.
Non-spore-forming.
Non-spore-forming.
Colonies are unpigmented, round, convex and smooth with entire margins on
tryptone soya agar. Facultatively anaerobic. Incubation temperature 30-37 ºC.
Optimum temperature for growth is 30 ºC, grows at 37 ºC but not at 4 or 50 ºC. Grows
occurs in TSA, de MRS agar, brain heart infusion (BHI), Luria-Bertani agar, and
MacConkey agar media. Growth occurs in the presence of 0-9 % (w/v) NaCl.

- Lelliottia amnigena was isolated from soil and human wound.
- Lelliottia jeotgali was isolated from a traditional Korean fermented clam. The L. aquatilis strains were isolated from water reservoirs.
- Lelliottia nimipressuralis was isolated from elm tree.

E. nimipressuralis is the causal agent of wetwood in elm trees.
