Gram-negative, straight or slightly curved rods, 0.25-1.0 x 0.75-2.5 μm, motile by one
polar flagellum.
polar flagellum.
Can grow in nutrient broth with: 1,5% to 12% NaCl (2.5-3.5% NaCl optimum). No
growth in 0% or 1% NaCl. Optimum growth temperature 30 ºC. Slow growth (10 days)
at 4 ºC. No growth at 37 ºC.
Facultatively anaerobic. No bioluminescence produced.
Grows on Bacto marine agar 2216 (Difco), Sea-water agar, producing brownish,
translucent, circular, smooth and convex colonies.
Grows on TCBS agar, producing green colonies.
