Gram-positive rods, 0.50-0.58 x 1.70-1.90 µm. Motile by peritrichous flagella. Produce
subterminal endospores.

Colonies are white and semi-translucent with smooth surfaces. Growth occurs at
10-50 ºC (optimum 30 ºC), at pH 6.0-9.0 (optimum 7.0) and in the presence of 0-7%
(w/v) NaCl (optimum 2-4% (w/v) NaCl). Facultatively anaerobic.
