Citrobacter freundii is a nosocomial opportunistic pathogen that can cause urinary and bloodstream infections. Phage therapies against C. freundii may prove useful in treating infections caused by this ubiquitous bacterium. Here, we report the complete genome of a T4-like myophage, Maroon, that infects C. freundii .
