Abstract
Gynaikothrips ficorum (Marchal 1908) is a major pest of bonsai ficus and poses a considerable economic threat to gardening industry. The mitochondrial genome of G. ficorum was sequenced and annotated in this study. Its whole mitogenome was 15,313 bp in length, including 37 typical genes in animal mitogenomes. ATN was used as start codon in most of the PCGs except for nad4l, which used TTG. All PCGs used TAA as termination codon except atp8 and atp6 which were ended with an incomplete T and TAG, respectively. A phylogenetic tree based on complete mitochondrial genomes of 17 species (15 Thysanoptera species and two outgroups) showed that the monophyly of Phlaeothripidae was supported and G. ficorum and G. uzeli formed a sister group.
