Species description is based on a single isolate.
Gram-positive, coccoid or oval cells, about 0.4-0.7 µm in diameter, occurring singly or
in clusters. Non-motile. Non-spore-forming.
Colonies are yellow, circular, lubricious and opaque and reach 2 mm in diameter
after 1 week incubation. Grows at 10-40 ºC (optimally at 28-30 ºC), pH 7.0-8.0, 0-25%
NaCl, 0-20% KCl, and 0-15% MgCl
2 * 6H2O. Aerobic.
Isolated from saline soil collected in Xinjiang Province, west China.
Undetermined.
