Gram-negative, pleomorphic rods, non-mmotile.
Colonies on CSBA are circular, entire, low convex, smooth, grey and attain a diameter
of 0.5 mm after 48 h aerobic incubation at 37 °C. Non-haemolytic. Growth is poor or
absent on media without blood or serum. No growth on MacConkey agar. Neither X
nor V factors are required for growth.
Growth occurs at 22 °C but not at 42 °C. Facultatively anaerobic.
