Mobiluncus is a genus of Gram-negative,anaerobic, rod-shaped bacteria. While this species possesses a cell wall with structural similarity to other Gram-positive cell walls, upon Gram stain, these bacteria may be stained either Gram-negative or Gram-variable.

These organisms are found in the human vagina, particularly in association with Gardnerella vaginalis in cases of bacterial vaginosis.
