Vibrio hyugaensis is a Gram-negative, curved rod bacterium first isolated from the coastal waters near Hyuga, Japan. It inhabits warm marine and estuarine environments of coastal East Asia. This chemoheterotrophic bacterium decomposes organic matter in seawater and marine sediments along temperate Pacific coastlines.

Vibrio mimicus is a Gram-negative, curved rod closely related to Vibrio cholerae but biochemically distinct. It inhabits coastal seawater, estuaries, and shellfish in warm tropical and subtropical marine environments. This facultatively anaerobic bacterium can cause gastrointestinal illness in humans who consume contaminated raw seafood.
