Cells stain Gram-negative and are motile, short rods, 1.3–2.0-µm long and 0.2–0.8-µm wide. Oxidase-positive, showing an aerobic respiratory metabolism. Good growth occurs after 24 h incubation on nutrient-rich media, like nutrient agar at 25–30°C. The polyamine pattern is composed of the major compound putrescine and moderate amounts of spermidine. Spermine, cadaverine, and 2-hydroxyputrescine may be present in minor amounts. The quinone system is ubiquinone Q-8 with minor amounts of Q-7. The polar lipid contains diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, and specific unidentified phospholipids and aminolipids. The major fatty acids are C_16:0, C_17:0 cyclo, and summed feature 3 (C_16:1 ω7c and/or C_15:0 iso 2-OH); summed feature 2 (comprising C_14:0 3-OH and/or C_16:1 iso) may also be detected. C_12:0 2-OH is not detected.

DNA G + C content (mol%): 56.1–57% (HPLC).

Type species: Paenalcaligenes hominis Kämpfer, Falsen, Langer, Lodders and Busse 2010, 1539^VP.
