Acinetobacter species are widely distributed in the environment and clinical settings worldwide. We report the 2.99-Mbp draft genome sequence of Acinetobacter towneri strain DSM 16313, which was isolated from seawater in South Korea and proposed as a type strain of Acinetobacter seohaensis . Genome comparisons demonstrated that A. seohaensis should be reclassified as A. towneri .
