Cells were oval or rod shaped and ranged in length from 1.2um to 2.2um with an average of 1.6um (Figure 1). Cell width ranged from .6um to 1um with an average of .8um.  Growth was only observed under aerobic conditions, from 4°C to 28°C, with optimal growth around 25°C. Low levels of growth were observed at pH 6.0 up to pH 8.0, maximum growth occured around neutral pH. Salt was required for growth, and the strain could not grow at >1.5% NaCl, optimal growth was at .5% 0.5%  NaCl. Strain Coronado(T) could utilize the following as sole carbon sources: Glycyl-L-Glutamic Acid, L-Rhamnose, D-Mannose, D-Trehalose, a-D-Glucose, L-Fucose, D-Galactose, Citric acid, D-Glucuronic acid, D-Galactonic acid, L-Galactonic acid-\(\gamma\)-Lactone, Acetoacetic acid, Acetic acid, Pyruvic acid, and L-Malic acid.
