Robinsoniella peoriensis is a Gram-positive, strictly anaerobic, spore-forming, rod-shaped organism. Here, we report the draft genome of R. peoriensis 6600698, initially classified as Clostridium difficile due to growth on selective agar, a fecal gdh PCR-positive result, and clinical symptoms. R. peoriensis is a potential confounder of C. difficile diagnosis.
