Gram-negative slightly curved rods, 0.3-0.6 x 0.8-2.1 μm. Non-motile.
Colonies grown on NSY agar are rose-pigmented, circular and convex with smooth
surface. Growth occurs at 5-28 ºC. NaCl is not required for growth. Maximum NaCl
concentration tolerated is 0.4% (w/v). Aerobic.
Isolated from a small lake with low conductivity and nearly neutral pH located in the mountains of the island of Corsica, France.
