CommentIdentified as predators capable of facultative predation by a wolf pack strategy and of degrading the prey organisms by excreted hydrolytic enzymes.
Originally isolated from the slimy coating of a freshwater alga (Chara sp.) in Birch Lake, Minnesota (USA), but strains belonging to the species were also isolated from well water, cow dung, hot springs and marine shores.
