''C. pseudotuberculosis'' produces small, white colonies, surrounded by a narrow zone of complete haemolysis. The colonies become dry and cream-coloured. Certain strains of ''C. pseudotuberculosis'' reduce nitrates and an enhancement of haemolysis is produced by ''C. pseudotuberculosis'' when inoculated across a streak of ''Rhodococcus equi''.
