Cells are Gram-staining-positive, non-flagellated and rod and spiral­shaped. Colonies are round, convex and yellow­colored after 2 days on R2 A at 30° C. Positive reactions are obtained for glucose fermentation, esculin hydrolysis and β-galactosidase in API 20NE, and negative reactions are obtained for nitrate reduction, indole production, arginine dihydrolase, urease and gelatinase. D­glucose, L­arabinose, D­mannose, D­mannitol, N ­acetyl­glucosamine, D­maltose, potassium gluconate and malic acid are utilized. Does not utilize capric acid, adipic acid, trisodium citrate and phenylacetic acid.
