A unique undescribed gram-negative rod is extensively characterized in this study. The cells of this unusual water isolate measure 1.2 x 6.5 microns. The most distinguishing characteristic of the bacterium is a polar tuft of 35-40 flagella that aggregate to function as a single organelle which is visible under phase contrast.
