Abstract
In this study, the complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of Oberthueria lunwan Zolotuhin & Wang, 2013 (Lepidoptera: Oberthuerinae) is reported for the first time. The entire mitogenome is a circular DNA molecule of 15,673 bp in length (GenBank accession number: MF100143), consisting of 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 transfer RNAs (tRNAs) genes, two ribosomal RNAs (rRNAs) genes, and a control region (A + T-rich region). The phylogenetic trees are based on 13 PCGs amino acid sequences of 31 related lepidopteran species in which mitogenome sequences were constructed. The Oberthuerinae consisting of O. lunwan+Andraca theae was strongly supported as a monophyletic clade by the posterior probability of 1.00 and the bootstrap value of 100%, but the relationships among Oberthuerinae, Bombycidae, Satruniidae, and Sphingidae are need to be further confirmed.
