Abstract

In this study, the complete mitogenome of brownbranded moon jellyfish Aurelia limbata (Cnidaria, Semaeostomeae, Ulmaridae) was sequenced and analyzed. The linear mitogenome is 16,953 bp long with 37.3% A, 16.8% C, 15.5% G, and 30.4% T nucleotide distributions. Total AT% content is 67.7%, which is the highest AT% content among available Aurelia species complete mitogenome records. Furthermore, phylogenetic relationships of A. limbata in the family Ulmaridae were investigated. According to protein-coding genes based phylogenetic tree, the A. aurita species collected from Korea water is the closest related species to A. limbata.
