1. Monotrichous (Mono means one): Single polar flagellum.
e.g. Vibrio cholerae, Campylobacter spp. (polar flagella often in pairs to give a “seagull” appearance).

2. Amphitrichous: Single flagellum at both ends e.g. Alcaligenes faecalis (Mneomonics: Remember: the characteristics of Amphibians: live both in land and water)

3. Lophotrichous: Tuft of flagella at one or both ends e.g. Spirilla spp

4. Peritrichous (flagella in periphery): Flagella surrounding the bacterial cell. All the members of family
