Gram-positive, straight rods, 0.5-0.7 x 4.5-4.7 µm, occuring single or in chains. Motile.
Produce ellipsoidal to cylindrical terminal endospores.

Colonies on LB agar have an umbonate surface and undulate edge, 1.0-2.0 mm in
diameter, usually cream, glistening and smooth. Grows at 35-70 ºC, (optimal growth
at 55 ºC), at pH 7.0-11.0 (optimum at pH 8.0) and in 0-3 % (w/v) NaCl concentration
(optimum 0.5%). Facultaive anaerobe.
