Draft Genome Sequence of Xenophilus sp., a Novel Bacterium Isolated from the Skin of a Southern Leopard Frog (Rana sphenocephala) in Florida, USA.

We report here the draft genome sequence of a novel Xenophilus species cultured from the skin of a southern leopard frog (Rana sphenocephala). Compared to previously sequenced bacterial genomes, our novel isolate showed the most significant homology with Xenophilus azovorans The assembled genome is 3,978,285 bp, with 3,704 predicted genes and one predicted plasmid.
