Cells are Gram-stain-negative, flagellated, non-pigmented and rod-shaped. Colonies are circular, entire, convex and orange colored after incubation for 3 days on MA at 20℃. Positive for indole production, gelatin hydrolysis and β -galactosidase, but negative for nitrate reduction, glucose fermentation, arginine dihydrolase, urease and esculin hydrolysis in API 20NE. D-Maltose and trisodium citrate are utilized as sole carbon sources, but not D-glucose, L-arabinose, D-mannose, D-mannitol, N-acetyl-glucosamine, potassium gluconate, capric acid, adipic acid, malic acid and phenylacetic acid. Strain IMCC 25635 (= NIBRBAC000498534) was isolated from a tidal flat sample, Mo Island, Korea.
