Forms yellow coloured colonies on nutrient agar. Cells are rod-shaped, 0.8–1.2 µm in diameter. Gram-stain-negative. Oxidase- and catalase-positive. Growth mode is chemoorganoheterotrophic (respiration/fermentation). Good growth occurs after 48 h of incubation on nutrient agar at 30 °C. Growth occurs between pH 6.0–7.5 (optimum 7.0). NaCl is not required and tolerated up to 3 % (w/v). Utilises a number of carbon sources for growth. Good carbon sources for growth are d-fructose, α-d-glucose, d-sorbitol, glycerol, malate, succinate and glutamate. Major fatty acid is C18 : 1ω7c with minor amounts of C19 : 0 cyclo ω8c, C16 : 0, C12 : 0 and C19 : 1ω7c/C19 : 1ω6c. Q-10 is the major quinone.

The type strain is JC85T ( = DSM 24765T = KCTC 23614T). The type strain was isolated as an endolith from a beach sand sample collected from Diamond Harbour, Kolkata, West Bengal, India. The DNA G+C content of the type strain is 67.7 mol%.
