No. Colder.

Think waterborne.

Ok, before even coming up with Yersinia enterolitica, there was Aeromonas hydrophila but stool cultures and landlocked buzzwords made me not mention it first not being a common uropathogen.

Unfortunately, it's not Aeromonas, but that is more in line with stool, waterborne, etc.

Now, try salt water instead of fresh water.

V. parahaemolyticus or V. vulnificus

Correct genus!

I thought of Vibrio cholerae before resorting to parahaemolyticus or vulnificus.

Few more comments into the future of getting this possibly wrong would have me guessing V. mimicus or V. alginolyticus just to cross off some list under the Vibrio genus.

And V. cholerae is the correct answer.

I have never seen what it looks like on the CHROMagar before this case.
