Abstract
The bamboo aphid, Pseudoregma bambucicola, is a terrible insect pest of bamboos. Herein, the complete mitochondrial genome of a representative of this aphid from China was determined through next generation sequencing platform. The whole genome was 16,651 bp in size and encoded 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes, and two rRNA genes. The phylogeny showed that two Chinese isolates of P. bambucicola clustered together and formed a monophyletic relationship with Hormaphis betulae in Hormaphidinae, supporting their species validity among the family Aphididae. The cumulative mitochondrial DNA data should contribute to a better understanding of the phylogenetic relationship of this aphid species.
