Species description is based on a single isolate.
Gram-positive cells, showing a rod-coccus cycle. Motile. Non-spore-forming.
Colonies are yellow, opaque, round, convex and glossy with a slimy consistency and
entire margins. Psychrotolerant. Growth occurs at -6 to 24 ºC (optimally at 16 ºC), at
pH 4-9.5 (optimally at pH 6.5) and in the presence of 0-10 % (w/v) NaCl (optimally in
0.5-3% NaCl). Facultatively anaerobic.
Isolated from a moss-covered soil from Livingston Island, South Shetland Islands, Antarctica.
Susceptible Sensitive to penicillin, ampicillin, kanamycin, neomycin, streptomycin, erythromycin, oxytetracycline, novobiocin and
rifampicin.
Undetermined.
