Abstract
The complete mitochondrial genome of Papilio elwesi was sequenced and annotated using high-throughput sequencing in the present study. The mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) is a circular molecule of 15,082 bp in length, containing 37 genes (13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, and two ribosomal RNA genes) and a putative control region. We performed mitogenomic phylogenetic analyses of 34 swallowtail species employing methods of Bayesian inference and maximum-likelihood. Our results further confirm that P. elwesi is a member of the subgenus Pterourus in Papilio sensu lato.
