Abstract
This paper reports the mitochondrial genome of Geokichla sibirica sibirica, which is a closed circular molecule of 16766 bp. All gene conformations were consistent with the gene arrangement in vertebrates. Phylogenetic analysis of cytochrome c oxidase subunit I and cytochrome b concatenated sequences from 10 species from seven genera was conducted using the neighbour-joining method and the Kimura 2-parameter model. The topology demonstrated that the mitogenome of this species was genetically closest to that of Zoothera aurea. Geokichla sibirica sibirica mitogenome can contribute to our understanding of the phylogeny and evolution of Zoothera and Geokichla.
