Abstract
This study presents, for the first time, the complete mitochondrial genome of the Common Dace (Leuciscus leuciscus (Linnaeus 1758)), in association with a voucher specimen from the Swedish Natural History Museum. The complete mitogenome length is 16,603 bp and comprises 13 protein-coding-genes (PCGs), 22 tRNAs, 2 rRNAs, and one non-coding control region. A maximum likelihood phylogenetic reconstruction based on 13 PCGs of Leuciscids species confirm the monophyly of the Leuciscus genus. Furthermore, this reconstruction has corroborated the placement of other Leuciscus species in this genus as L. leuciscus is the type species of this genus.
