Species description is based on a single isolate.
Gram-positive, spherical cells, 0.5-0.7 μm in diameter, usually occuring in chains.
Non-motile. Non-spore-forming.
Grows at 30-50 ºC (optimally at 40 ºC) and at pH 5.5-8.5 (optimally at pH 7.5). Yeast
extract is required for growth. Anaerobic.
Isolated from a methanogenic reactor fed with food waste in Fukagawa, Hokkaido Prefecture, Japan.
Sensitive to ampicillin, chloramphenicol, neomycin and vancomycin. Resistant to kanamycin and rifampicin.
Undetermined.
