Mycobacterium montefiorense is a member of the Mycobacterium simiae complex, the largest group of nontuberculous mycobacteria. Here, we report the genome sequence of M. montefiorense isolate BS, isolated from diseased Japanese black salamander ( Hynobius nigrescens ) reared in an aquarium in Japan. This is the first reported case of an M. montefiorense infection in an amphibian.
