Abstract

The complete mitochondrial genome of Ellobium chinense (Ellobioidea, Ellobiidae), an Endangered species in South Korea, is reported here for the first time. The mitogenome of E. chinense is 13,979 base pairs in total length and includes 13 PCGs, small and large rRNAs, and 21 tRNAs. Twelve genes are encoded on the light-strand and 24 genes on the heavy-strand. Compared to four other ellobiid species, the PCGs of E. chinense have a conserved gene order except for the positions of ND4L and ND4. These data provide useful molecular information for phylogenetic studies concerning ellobiids and related species.
