Gram positive cocci, 0.6-2.0 μm in diameter. Non-motile. Subsp. succinus occurs
in rosettes of 3–6 cells. Subsp. casei occurs singly, in pairs or in clusters.
in rosettes of 3–6 cells. Subsp. casei occurs singly, in pairs or in clusters.
Colonies are white, opaque, rough, with elevated center & 4-6 mm diameter after 2
days of incubation. Aerobic. No growth in anaerobic zone of thioglycolate medium.
Growth temperature 25-40 ºC (4-41 ºC for subsp. casei); optimal 28-32 ºC. Subsp.
succinus grows at grow at pH 4.9 (subsp. casei does not).

Subsp. casei - isolated from swiss ripened cheese surface. Resistant to novobiocin.
Subsp. succinus - isolated from Dominican amber (latin - succinum) with plant & soil inclusions. Resistant to novobiocin & bacitracin.
