| Class: | Gamma Proteobacteria |
| Genus: | Azomonas |
| Species: | Azomonas insignis |
| Description: | It is very motile with one polar flagellum(or lophotrichous) and in addition it has a great preference for organic acids,especially malic acid.Colonies on nitrogen free media are usually small,smooth,translucent, and low convex.They show a low proportion of extracellular polysaccharides.Cells are round or ellipsoidal and are usually 2.5-3.9 μm in length and 1.7-2.6 μm in width. |
