1: Gram-negative, catalase-positive, asaccharolytic coccobacilli with an DNA G+C content of 60-69 mol%. Growth occurs strictly aerobically, facultatively anaerobically and non-fermentatively. One species is able to grow anaerobically under conditions favouring respiratory nitrate and selenate reduction. Species assimilate citrate under aerobic conditions, one species assimilates D-gluconate. Additional biochemical attributes are given in Results. The major respiratory isoprenoid quinone is Q-8. Strains were isolated from humans and warm-blooded animals, one strain was isolated from the environment.
