Morphology Vibrio
CELLULAR  
Staining Gram-negative
Morphology Straight or curved rods, 0.5-0.8 um in width and 1.4-2.6 um in length.
Motility In liquid media, motile by monotrichous or multitrichous polar flagella which are enclosed in a sheath continuous with the outer membrane of the cell wall. On solid media, may synthesize numerous lateral flagella with a wavelength shorter than that of the sheathed polar flagellum.
Specialized structures Involution forms usually present in old cultures or under adverse conditions of cultivation. Do not form endospores or microcysts
