Abstract

The complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of Thaumatosmylus hainanus is described in the present paper. The sequenced mitogenome is 16029 bp in length containing the typical set of 37 genes, including 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 tRNA genes, 2 rRNA genes, and 1 control region. Besides COI initiates with TCG, the remaining 12 PCGs use ATN as the start codon. Most of the PCGs terminate with TAA codons but COII, CytB, ND4, and ND5 with a single T residue. The lrRNA and srRNA genes are 1330 bp and 794 bp in length, respectively. The control region is 1105 bp along with A + T content of 90.2%. The phylogenetic result supports the monophyly of the family Osmylidae and a closer relationship between Thaumatosmylus and Thyridosmylus that belong to the same subfamily Spilosmylinae.
