Abstract

<i>Acinetobacter pittii</i> 624-B was obtained from a parakeet with pneumonia. It is resistant to cefoxitin, cephalothin, cephalexin, ampicillin, clindamycin, cefuroxime, and cefovencin. The genome has a blaADC-13 gene, an ANT(3″)-IIa gene, and a blaOXA-213-like gene. It also contains the genes for acinetobactin synthesis and for type II and VI secretion systems.
