Gram-negative, slightly curved cells, 1 x 2-3 µm,motile by at least one polar flagellum.
Colonies on TSA are translucent, not swarming, convex, smooth, rounded, beige, 5
mm in diameter after 48 hours at 28 ºC incubation. Colonies on TCBS agar are
yellow, translucent, 5-10 mm in diameter.
Variable growth in nutrient broth with: 8% NaCl. No growth in 0% NaCl.No growth at 4,
35 or 40 ºC. Facultative anaerobe.
