Pedobacter roseus is a pink-pigmented, Gram-negative bacterium in the family Sphingobacteriaceae, isolated from soil environments. It produces distinctive rosy colonies and inhabits cool to temperate soils with organic matter. This aerobic chemoheterotroph decomposes a variety of organic substrates and produces hyaluronidase-type enzymes.
