Colonies are circular, spore-forming and gray white colored after incubation for 3 days on R2 A agar at 20-40℃. In the API 20NE system, positive reaction for hydrolysis of esculin and gelatin, β-galactosidase activity and utilization of D-glucose, D-mannitol, D­maltose, potassium gluconate and malic acid. In the API 20NE system, negative reaction for nitrate reduction, indole production, glucose fermentation, arginine dihydrolase, urease activity, oxidase activity and utilization of L­arabinose, D­mannose, N ­acetyl­glucosamine, capric acid, adipic acid, trisodium citrate and phenylacetic acid.
