Gram-negative short rods, 1.0 x 1.5-3.0 μm, occurring singly or in pairs. Weakly
motile. Non-spore-forming.  
Colonies are round, smooth and convex with entire margins on tryptone soy agar and
light beige in colour after incubation of 24 h at 28 ºC. Facultatively anaerobic.
Isolated from Eucalyptus leaves in Colombia.
Isolated from lesions on Eucalyptus leaves exhibiting symptoms of bacterial blight and dieback.
