Abstract
The Common redpoll (Carduelis flammea) is one species of family Fringillidae. In the present study, we determined the complete mitochondrial DNA sequences of this species. The mitochondrial genome of Common redpoll is a circular molecule of 16 820 bp in size and contains 13 protein-coding genes, 2 rRNA genes, 22 tRNA genes and 1 control region. The total base composition is 31.35% for C, 14.14% for G, 30.57% for A and 23.94% for T, respectively. The phylogenetic tree of Common redpoll and 12 other closely related Fringillidae species was built. These data will be useful for studying the genetic diversity within the species of Common redpoll and phylogenetic relationships among different Fringillidae species.
