Abstract

The complete mitochondrial genome of the leafhopper species Paraahimia luodianensis was sequenced and annotated. It is 16,497 bp in length and consists of 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes, two rRNA genes, and one AT-rich region. Most of PCGs started with ATN and stopped with TAA, except for ATP8 started with TTG, COX2, COX3, NAD5, and NAD1 used incomplete T–– as a stop codon. We constructed a phylogenetic tree from 12 species (Hemiptera) based on neighbour-joining method and using 13 mitochondrial protein-coding genes. The result showed that both species of Limassolla lingchuanensis and P. luodianensis which belonging to Zyginellini were clustered into one clade. This study further enriched mitogenome database of the tribe Zyginellini.
