Abstract

The mitochondrial genome of Silba sp. was sequenced and annotated as the first representative of family Lonchaeidae. The complete mitochondrial genome of Silba sp. is 16,008 bp totally, consisting of 13 protein-coding genes, two rRNAs, and 22 transfer RNAs, which has a similar gene structure with other published species of Diptera. The nucleotide composition biases toward A and T is 77.2% of the entirety. All PCGs start with ATN codons, except COI and ND1, and end with TAA or incomplete stop codon. Phylogenetic analyses based on 11 Diptera species supported the monophyly of superfamily Tephritoidea.
