Abstract
The dance fly, Ocydromia sp. belongs to the subfamily Ocydromiinae of Empididae. The mitogenome (GenBank accession number: MK514083) of Ocydromia sp. was sequenced, the first representative of the mitogenome of the subfamily. The nearly complete mitogenome is 16,078 bp totally, consisting of 13 protein-coding genes, 2 rRNAs, and 22 transfer RNAs. All genes have similar locations and strands with that of other published species of Empididae. The nucleotide composition biases toward A and T, which together made up 79.1% of the entirety. Bayesian inference analysis strongly supported the monophyly of Empidoidea, Empididae, and Dolichopodidae. This result also suggested that Empidinae is the sister group to the clade of Ocydromiinae.
