Gram-negative rods, 1.6 x 3.3µm. Motile by polar flagella. Non-spore-forming.
Colonies on solid 3-chlorobenzoate-mineral agar are round, smooth, colourless,
opaque colonies of 1-2 mm diameter when incubated at 28 ºC for 3 days. Fluorescent
or phenazine pigments are not formed. Growth is observed at 20-41 ºC but not at 4 ºC.
Good growth is found at pH 6.0 and 8.3, no growth at pH 5 or pH 9. Aerobic.

Isolated from a sewage treatment plant in Gottingen, Germany, after continuous enrichment with 3-chlorobenzoate.
