Draft Genome Sequences of Buttiauxella spp. Isolates from Water and Gastropods with Putative β-d-Glucuronidase Activity.

We report the draft genome sequences of Buttiauxella spp. strains that were isolated from water and gastropods. Three isolates show fluorescence in the Colilert system, indicating unusual β-d-glucuronidase activity, and phylogenetic analyses suggest that they represent a novel species. Another strain, without β-d-glucuronidase activity, was assigned to the species Buttiauxella ferragutiae.
