- The isolate represents a new species within the Desulfovibrio genus.

## Abstract

Desulfovibrio is a genus of sulfate-reducing, anaerobic bacteria ubiquitously present in the environment. Herein, we report the complete genome sequence of an isolate of a new Desulfovibrio species obtained from a human clinical specimen in Japan. The genome comprised a circular chromosome with a length of 3,213,183 bp.
