Gram-negative, short rods, 0.8-1.3 x 0.6-0.7 μm. Motile by a single flagellum.
Colonies on nutrient agar are red-pigmented, circular and smooth with entire
margins. Grows at 4-42 ºC (optimum, 30-37 ºC), pH 5-11 (optimum, pH 6.0–10.0) and
2-7% NaCl. Growth occurs on trypticase soy agar, nutrient agar, cetrimide agar,
Simmons’ citrate agar and MacConkey agar.
