Their spec says:
"Occasionally the medium may grow some Bacillus species, yeast and very rarely, Proteus."

Colour might help but the typical characteristic halo is IMEX often tricky to see except at certain angles.
Coagulase positive ?

Thanks for the answers, but it certainly is not Staphylococcus aureus.

Certainly based on the picture it does not look like typical S.aureus coagulase positive.
Which is usually the only purpose of using the Agar.
Then again, I believe curiosity found Penicillin.
