Positive results for utilization of: DL-lactate, acetate, glutarate, D-malate and ethanol.
Negative results for gelatin hydrolysis, utilization of: DL-4-aminobutyrate, L-aspartate, beta-alanine, L-histidine, malonate, histamine,
L-phenylalanine, phenylacetate, laevulinate, citraconate and L-leucine. Acid is not produced from D-glucose.
Variable results for utilization of: citrate (Simmons), azelate, 4-hydroxybenzoate, L-tartrate and 2,3-butanediol.

Gram-negative coccobacilli. Non-motile. Non-sporulated.
Colonies on nutrient agar after 24 h incubation at 30 ºC are approximately 1.5-2.5 mm
in diameter, circular, convex, smooth and slightly opaque with entire margins. Growth
occurs at 41 ºC but not at 44 ºC. Non-haemolytic. Some strains may produce diffuse,
light yellowish-brown pigment on King's medium A and surrounded by dark greenish
zones on Sheep Blood Agar.
