## TL;DR

This paper provides draft genome sequences of four Corynebacterium amycolatum strains from female urine samples, helping to understand this emerging urinary tract pathogen.

## Contribution

The novelty lies in presenting draft genomes of C. amycolatum strains from both symptomatic and asymptomatic individuals.

## Key findings

- Draft genomes of four C. amycolatum strains were successfully sequenced.
- The strains were isolated from both symptomatic and asymptomatic female participants.
- This contributes to the genomic characterization of C. amycolatum as an emerging urinary tract pathogen.

## Abstract

Corynebacterium amycolatum is an emerging pathogen of the urinary tract. Here, we present the draft genomes for four strains isolated from urine collected from symptomatic and asymptomatic female participants.
