Abstract

In this study, the complete mitochondrial genome of the small-scaled Wu’s goby Wuhanlinigobius polylepis (Wu & Ni, 1985) found in eastern and southern China has been amplified and sequenced. The complete mitochondrial genome is 16,496 base pairs (bp) in total length, had the typical vertebrate mitochondrial gene arrangement, including 13 protein-coding genes, 2 rRNAs, 22 tRNAs, 1 control region (CR) and 1 light-strand replication origin (OL). The overall base composition of Wuhanlinigobius polylepis is 28.6% for A, 29.0% for T, 26.7% for C, 15.7% for G, with higher AT content 57.6%. This study will contribute for further understanding the molecular phylogenetic anaylsis in Hemigobius generic group of gobiid fishes.
