Abstract

In this study, the complete mitochondrial genome of the Forcipomyia makanensis was sequenced and analyzed. The mitochondrial genome is 16,558 bp long and contains 13 protein-coding genes, two rRNA genes, 22 tRNA genes, and one control region. Twenty-three genes were found to be encoded by the majority strand and the other 14 genes by minority strand, those is similar to that of other insects. The nucleotide compositing of the majority strands are 39.02% of A, 14.03% of C, 37.74% of T and 9.21% of G. The phylogenetic analysis by Maximum-likelihood (ML) method revealed that the Forcipomyia makanensis was close to the same family insect Culicoides arakawae.
