Abstract

The mudskipper, Boleophthalmus pectinirostris (B. pectinirostris), is an amphibious fish that lives in the intertidal mudflats. It is a cultured economic fish with nutritional and pharmacological value. Here, we report the complete mitochondrial genome sequence of B. pectinirostris, which is 17,111 base pairs (55.3% A + T content) in length and consists of 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNAs, 2 ribosomal RNAs, and a 1453 bp D-loop region. The complete mitochondrial genome of B. pectinirostris will provide useful genetic information for future phylogenetic and taxonomic classification of B. pectinirostris.
