Gram negative, slightly curved cells, 1 x 3 µm.
Colonies on TSA are smooth, beige, low convex, translucent to opaque,
non-swarming, 4 mm in diameter after 48 hours incubation at 28 °C.
Strains form yellow and/or green, translucent colonies on TCBS agar.
Can grow in nutrient broth with: 1% to 8% NaCl, no growth in 0% or 10% NaCl.
Facultatively anaerobic.

Previous group A9 strains were found to be ubiquitous in the marine environment , associated with aquatic animals (Nodipecten
nodosus, Salmo salar, Crassostrea gigas).
The type strain , LMG 21557T ,(formerly group A9 member), was isolated from the white shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei in Ecuador.
Susceptible to O/129 vibriostatic agent.

Positive results for indole production, oxidase, catalase, β-galactosidase, nitrate
reduction, acid production from D-glucose & D-mannitol.
Negative results for H2S, urease, lysine decarboxylase, ornithine decarboxylase,
arginine dihydrolase, gelatinase, acid production from: D-sorbitol, inositol, L-rhamnose & arabinose.
Variable results for acid production from: sucrose, melibiose & amygdalin.
