Abstract

The first complete mitochondrial genome (16,537 bp) of the suborder Ammodytoidei was determined for Ammodytes personatus. The genome includes 22 tRNAs, 2 rRNAs, and 13 protein-coding genes as well as the putative control region and OL. The gene order and component are identical to those of canonical vertebrate mitochondrial genomes. In control region, all six central conserved sequence blocks (CSB-F to CSB-A) having been detected only in the order Pleuronectiformes were recognized in A. personatus, which might contribute to its taxonomic resolution.
