Cells are gram-staining-negative, non-flagellated, and short rod-shaped. Colonies are punctiform, flat, entire, and white-colored after 5 days of incubation at 30°C on Kuster’s agar. Positive for nitrate reduction, glucose fermentation, and urease activity. Negative for indole production, arginine dihydrolase, esculin hydrolysis, gelatinase and β -galactosidase activities. Does not utilize Dglucose, L-arabinose, D-mannose, D-mannitol, N -acetyl-glucosamine, D-maltose, potassium gluconate, capric acid, adipic acid, malic acid, trisodium citrate, and phenylacetic acid.
