Abstract
The complete mitochondrial (mt) genome of Nothochrysa sinica Yang (Neuroptera: Chrysopidae: Nothochrysinae) is reported in this work. It represents the first complete mt genome of the subfamily Nothochrysinae. The whole mt genome is 16,166 bp long and contains 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 transfer RNA genes (tRNAs), 2 ribosomal RNA genes (rRNAs), and an AT-rich region. Most PCGs used the typical ATN as initiation codons. The AT-rich region is 1,271 bp long with 90.24% of A + T. The results show that N. sinica is closely related to N. californica. Chrysopidae was demonstrated monophyletic being the sister group to Hemerobiidae. Within Chrysopidae, the sister-group relationship between Nothochrysinae and Apochrysinae was supported and together being the sister group to Chrysopinae.
