A Mollicutes Metagenome-Assembled Genome from the Gut of the Pteropod Limacina rangii

A nearly complete genome of an uncultured Mollicutes sp. was obtained from the metagenome of the gut of Limacina rangii (open-ocean snail), an important grazer and prey for higher trophic animals along the rapidly warming region of the western Antarctic Peninsula.
