Abstract
We describe the complete mitochondrial genome sequence of Cyriopagopus hainanus, a spider in the family of Theraphosidae and endemic to Hainan Island, China. Phylogenetic analyses using mitogenomes of 32 spider species from 20 families strongly supported our sample is sister to Cyriopagopus schmidti. This is also the largest mitogenomic phylogeny of spiders to date. The mitogenomic length of C. hainanus is 13,874 bp, including 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, 2 ribosomal RNA genes, and 1 control region. The complete mitochondrial genome of C. hainanus will contribute to studies of mitogenomic evolution and trait evolution in spiders.
