Abstract
Sulfuricella sp. strain T08 is a sulfur-oxidizing autotroph newly isolated from a freshwater lake in Japan. Strain T08 is the second isolate of the genus Sulfuricella. Here, we report the annotated draft genome sequence of the isolate.

Summary
Sulfuricella sp. strain T08 is a sulfur-oxidizing autotroph newly isolated from a freshwater lake in Japan. Betaproteobacteria have been recognized as major constituents of the sulfur-oxidizing bacterial community in freshwater lakes [1, 2]. A new order, Sulfuricellales, was established in the class Betaproteobacteria to accommodate three freshwater sulfur oxidizers of two genera [3]. The type genus of this order is the genus Sulfuricella, and members of this genus have been detected in various freshwater environments as nucleotide sequences.
