Abstract
We determined the complete mitochondrial genome of Lactoria cornuta, which is 16,495 bp in length with an A + T content of 57.37%, and contains 13 protein-coding genes, 2 rRNAs, 22 tRNAs and a complete control region. The total base composition of the mitogenome is 28.2% T, 26.7% C, 29.2% A and 15.9% G. Of the 13 protein-coding genes, 12 genes start with an ATG codon, except for COX1 with GTG. Ten genes use TAA or AGA as the termination codon, whereas three (COX2, ND4, and Cyt b) have incomplete stop codon T. This study would provide useful genetic information for phylogenetic and species idenfication of the family Ostraciidae.
