Abstract

The mitochondrial genome of Monachacartusiana is the first complete mitochondrial sequence described for the pulmonate snail genus Monacha and for the family Hygromiidae. The identified mitogenome has a length of 13,894 bp and encodes 13 proteins, 22 tRNAs, and two rRNAs. A phylogenetic analysis of available mitogenomes from representatives of helicoid families shows a sister group relationship of Hygromiidae and Geomitridae, which have been recently recognised as separate families.
