Cells are filamentous. A branched substrate mycelium and sparse to abundant white aerial mycelium is produced. The aerial hyphae break up into irregular rod-like elements. Gram-stain-positive. Spores are not formed. Nonmotile. Aerobic metabolism. Good growth is observed on complex organic media at 20–30°C. Oxidase-negative, catalase-positive. The cell-wall peptidoglycan contains meso-diaminopimelic acid (meso-A₂pm), alanine, glycine, and glutamic acid. The muramic acid in the peptidoglycan is N-acetylated. The cell-wall sugars are xylose and minor amounts of an unknown compound. The predominant menaquinones are MK-9(H₄ ), MK-9(H₆ ), and MK-9(H₈ ). The polar lipids comprise diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylserine, phosphatidylinositol, and several unknown phospholipids and glycolipids together with unknown ninhydrin-positive compounds. Mycolic acids are absent. The cellular fatty acid profile is characterized by the predominance of C_16:0 iso, 10-methyl-C_17:0, C_17:1 cis9, 10-methyl-C_18:0, and C_17:0. Based on 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities, the genus is closely related to the genus Cryptosporangium of the family Cryptosporangiaceae.
