Etymology
N.L. fem. adj. <i>lytica</i> (from Gr. fem. adj. <i>lutikê</i>, able to loosen, able to dissolve), loosening, dissolving.
Ecology
Source
isolated from coastal sand and mud, tidal pools, and macroalgal samples. The type strain was isolated from marine beach mud, Limon, Costa Rica.
Morphology
Cells are non-spore-forming rods (0.4-0.8 × 1.2-4.7 µm) occurring singly or in pairs, occasionally in chains, and motile by gliding. Gas vesicles and helical or ring-shaped cells are not formed. Colonies are yellow to orange due to production of carotenoids.
