Abstract
The wavyband sole Pseudaesopia japonica is the only known member of the genus Pseudaesopia. In this study, we firstly determined the complete mitochondrial genome of P. japonica. It is 16,789 bp in length and contains two rRNA genes, 22 tRNA genes, 13 protein-coding genes and one putative control region with the typical gene order and transcriptional direction in vertebrates. The overall base composition of mitogenome in P. japonica is 28.4% A, 30.3% C, 15.6% G and 25.7% T. Two start codons (ATG and GTG) and four stop codons (AGA, AGG, TAG and TAA) were found in 13 protein-coding genes. The 22 tRNAs range from 67 bp (tRNA-Cys and tRNA-Tyr) to 75 bp (tRNA-Lys) in length. The control region is 1120 bp in length, representing a higher proportion of A + T (65.3%) while lower of G (12.0%).
