Morphological features
Cell shape	Cell shape::bacillus	Gram-negative bacilli isolated from human oral
Pigments	Pigments::variably; cream and opaque	[[Cells are obligately anaerobic, non-motile, variably pig- menting, Gram-negative bacilli that are 0.760.8–3.0 mm in size. After 3 days incubation on FAA plates, colonies are 1.5–2.0 mm in diameter, circular, entire, convex, cream- coloured and opaque. Some strains produce black colonies in the presence of metronidazole and other strains form bull’s-eye colonies with reddish-brown pigmentation in the centres. Growth in broth media produces moderate turbidity that is markedly enhanced by the addition of fermentable carbohydrates.]]
