Description and emendation
Original Description
expand / minimize
Cells are Gram-staining-negative, strictly anaerobic vibrios that are motile with two or three lateral flagella. Mesophilic and non-spore-forming. Yeast extract is required for growth. Grow by fermentation of amino acids and organic acids, but not carbohydrates. Do not reduce any of the electron acceptors tested and do not perform the Stickland reaction. The major fatty acids are iso-C13:0, iso-C15:0 and C19:1 ω11c/C19:1 ω9c. The DNA G+C content of the type species is 61.9 mol%.
