Abstract

The complete mitochondrial genome of the highly venomous blue-lined octopus, Hapalochlaena fasciata (Hoyle, 1886), was analyzed by the primer walking method. Its mitogenome was 15,479 bp in total length, comprising 13 protein-coding genes, 2 ribosomal RNA genes, and 23 transfer RNA genes. In the phylogenetic tree, the gene content and order were congruent with those of typical octopodiform species. The mitogenomic sequence presented could be very useful as the first record of the complete mitogenome for the genus Hapalochlaena.
