Tolumonas is a genus of Gram-negative bacteria.[2][3] It grows under aerobic and anaerobic conditions and is nonmotile.[3] The cells are rods and occur in pairs or singly.[3] It is known for one of its species biological bacterial production of toluene from phenylalanine and other phenyl precursors[4][5]
