Species description is based on a single isolate.
Gram-negative, curved-rods, 0.5-0.7 x 1.75-2.2 µm. Motile by lophotrichous flagella.
Fluorescent pigment production on King’s B medium is not produced.
The optimum temperature for growth is 30 ºC; growth occurs at 10-30ºC but not at 4
ºC or 37 ºC. The optimal pH for growth is 7-7.5; growth occurs between pH 5.0-10.0.
Growth is observed in the presence of 0-3% NaCl (but not in ≥ 4 %) with an
optimal concentration of 0.5%. Aerobic.
Isolated from deep waters sampled from the St. Lawrence Estuary. Mn(III) - oxidizing bacterium.
Undetermined.
