Abstract

White-striped long-horned beetle, Batocera lineolata occurred in China, Vietnam, Myanmar, India, Japan and Korea and is one of the most important wood-boring forestry pests. Complete mitochondrial genome was determined based on next-generation sequencing. The long-horned beetle has a total length of 15,420 bp, consisting of 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 tRNA, 2 rRNA genes and a non-coding region. The phylogenetic position was closely clustered with 6 other Lamiinae species with strong node support. Within Chrysomeloidea superfamily, a monophyletic Lamiinae clad is recovered as the sister group of the Cerambycinae from three species and the Chrysomelidae consisting five species forms a monophyletic clade which is strongly supported.

Summary

Introduction

White-striped long-horned beetle, Batocera lineolata occurred in China, Vietnam, Myanmar, India, Japan and Korea and is one of the most important wood-boring forestry pests. KEYWORDS Batocera lineolata; mitochondrial genome; molecular phylogeny Chrysomeloidea are an enormous superfamily of Coleoptera beetles, mostly in the families Chrysomelidae, the leaf beetles and Cerambycidae, the long horned beetles. Many species in these two families are important plant pests.
