Strictly anaerobic curved cells with rounded ends. Motile and Gram-negative. Non-spore-former. Uses amino acids and carbohydrates.
Emendation
Emendation 1
Emendation 2
1: Strictly anaerobic, curved cells. Motile by means of lateral flagella, located on the concave side of the cell. Gram-negative. Non-spore-forming. Multiplication occurs by binary fission. Thermophilic. Neutrophilic. Grows chemoorganotrophically with fermentable substrates or lithoheterotrophically with molecular hydrogen and elemental sulfur, reducing the sulfur to H2S. The G+C content of the DNA is from 54.5 to 56.5 mol%. Habitats are granular methanogenic sludge and neutral hot springs.
2: The G+C content is between 58.8 and 63.8 mol%.
