Lateral, (a) Monotrichous: A single flagellum predominantly from the middle half of the soma, (b) Multitrichous: Several flagella as a tuft predominantly from the middle half of the soma. Peritrichous: Flagella seemingly haphazardly arranged on the soma, either single or multiple. Mixed: Two or more flagella of distinctly different appearance in different locations. The subpolar arrangement is rare. The monotrichous type has been seen mainly in Rhizobiutn, the multitrichous type only in.
