Abstract
Gammarus lacustris is native to the Qinghai–Tibet Plateau (QTP), widely distributed in alpine lakes. The complete mitochondrial DNA sequence of G. lacustris was 15,349 base pairs in length and comprised 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, 2 ribosomal RNA genes, and 1 control region. The BI tree showed that G. lacustris was most closely related to Gammarus duebeni, and indicated that Gammarus, Gmelinoides, Brachyuropus, Pallaseopsis, and Eulimnogammarus evolved from a common ancestor. The mitogenome of G. lacustris provides new molecular data for further taxonomic and phylogenetic studies of Amphipoda.
