Clostridium vincentii is an obligate anaerobic, saccharophilic, psychrophilic, Gram-positive, motile, and rod-shaped bacterium. It was isolated from a pond sediment of the McMurdo Ice Shelf, Antarctica. C. vincentii produces acetate and formate as main fermentation products. The draft genome consists of one chromosome (3.506 Mb) with 3,379 predicted protein-encoding genes.
