The family Hyphomonadaceae within the Alphaproteobacteria is largely comprised of bacte- ria isolated from marine environments with striking morphologies and an unusual mode of cell growth. Here, we report the complete genome sequence Hirschia baltica, which is only the second a member of the Hyphomonadaceae with a published genome sequence. H. bal- tica is of special interest because it has a dimorphic life cycle and is a stalked, budding bacte- rium. The 3,455,622 bp long chromosome and 84,492 bp plasmid with a total of 3,222 pro- tein-coding and 44 RNA genes were sequenced as part of the DOE Joint Genome Institute Program CSP 2008.
