Abstract
We report the draft genome sequence of Bacillus pumilus strain Bonn associated with human skin infection. B. pumilus Bonn was isolated from a carbuncle-like necrotic site, resembling cutaneous anthrax, on the back of the hand of a 10-year-old child.

We report the draft genome sequence of Bacillus pumilus strain Bonn associated with human skin infection
B. pumilus strain Bonn was isolated from a 10-year-old boy in 2011
To the best of our knowledge, the first genome sequence reported of a B. pumilus strain associated with human necrotic skin infection
Summary
We report the draft genome sequence of Bacillus pumilus strain Bonn associated with human skin infection. Some cases have been described where B. pumilus was associated with infections in human-like cutaneous lesions, catheter infections, or severe sepsis of neonatal infants [2,3,4]. B. pumilus strain Bonn was isolated from a 10-year-old boy in 2011. A swab was taken and cultured from the edge of the lesion yielding B. pumilus among normal skin flora.
