Armatimonas rosea width and 2.4–3.2 µm in length. Neither spores nor flagella were observed. When investigated in R2A media, cultures of "A. rosea" were observed to be aerobic and chemoheterotrophic with no evidence of growth under anaerobic conditions. It is negative for the following tests: nitrate respiration, fermentative growth, catalase, and cytochrome oxidase. Armatimonas rosea Armatimonas rosea is a Gram-negative bacterium and also the first species to be characterized within the phylum Armatimonadetes. The Armatimonadetes were previously known as candidate phylum OP10. OP10 was composed solely of environmental 16S rRNA gene clone sequences prior to "A. rosea's" discovery. "A. rosea" was originally
