Abstract

Periclimenes brevicarpalis is widely distributed in the Indo West Pacific oceans. The mitochondrial genome of P. brevicarpalis was sequenced and assembled firstly by next generation sequencing technology in our study. The complete mitochondrial genome of P. brevicarpalis was 16,673 bp in size, consisted of 22 transfer RNA genes, 13 protein coding genes and two ribosomal RNA genes. The contents of the four bases were C (25.62%), T (28.73%), A (31.64%), and G (14.01%). The result of phylogenetic analysis showed that P. brevicarpaliswas clustered with Anchistus australis. In conclusion, our research provided valuable data for phylogenetic analysis of the Palaemonidae family as the first report about mitochondrial genomes in Periclimenes.
