Abstract

A complete mitochondrial DNA genome of a rare click beetle, Cryptalaus yamato (Nakane), is the first reported. The genome consists of 15,882 base pairs including 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 20 tRNAs, two rRNAs, and a 1279 bp long AT-rich region. The overall base composition is 69.4% AT and 30.6% GC. The maximum likelihood analysis based on nucleotide sequence data of 13 PCGs supported that C. yamato is involved in monophyletic group of Elateridae.
