One strain tested: AF-2004T , the type strain.
Gram negative, short, curved rods, 0.5-0.6 x 1.0-2.3 μm, motile by one polar flagellum.
Can grow in nutrient broth with:  1% to 17% NaCl. (5 % NaCl is optimal, variable for
12% NaCl). Growth in 0% NaCl is negative.
Growth temperature  10 - 45 °C. No growth at 4 °C.  Optimal growth at 32 - 35 °C.  
Facultatively anaerobic, moderately halophilic. Growth occurs at pH 5 - 9.5 (optimal pH
8.0 - 8.5).
Isolated from Bakhtegan Lake, a hypersaline lake , Iran.
Resistant to amoxicillin, bacitracin, cephoxitin, kanamycin, penicillin, streptomycin, tobramycin.
Unknown.
