All species of genus Streptococcus (family Streptococcaceae, order Lactobacillales, class Bacilli, phylum Firmicutes, kingdom Bacteria) are, as the name suggests, cocci. That is to say: round shaped.
They are also generally found in chains rather than individuals.
They are gram positive and there are several hemolytic strains (although there are some non-hemolytic streptococci.)

Bacteria whose genus name refers to grouping cells of particular shape?
Depending on shape of Bacteria it is divided into Bacilli (Bacteria which is in the form of 'rod' shape), Cocci (Bacteria in the form of 'spherical' shape), Vibrios (Bacteria in the form of 'comma' shaped which are resembles to rod shape), Spirilla (Bacteria in the form of 'spiral' shaped). And based on the arrangement of cells they are classified as Mono (to which are arranged in the form of single form), Diplo (to which are arranged in the form of double cells together), Strepto (to which are arranged in the form of chain form), Staphylo (to which are arranged in the form of bunch or clumps form). Exceptions: Pleomorphic (which are not present in proper shape. eg.Mycoplasma), Cocobasillus (Bacteria which normally present in rod shape but in corner are in slightly round in shape. eg.Bacillus anthracis).
