Gram-negative, slightly curved rods, 0.6-0.8 x 2.0-3.0 µm, motile by means of at least
one polar flagellum.
one polar flagellum.
Colonies on Marine agar are pale yellow, smooth, round or slightly irregular in shape,
1.5-2.0 mm in diameter after 3 days, nonbioluminescent. Can grow in nutrient broth
with: 1 to 12% NaCl. No growth in 0% NaCl. Growth occur at 4-45 ºC, pH 4.1-8.8
(optimal 25-30 ºC, pH 6.9 and 3% NaCl). Facultatively anaerobic.
