Zusammenfassung:The rock ptarmigan Lagopus muta is a grouse widely distributed in the arctic and subarctic regions of Eurasia and North America. The range of Japanese endemic subspecies (Japanese rock ptarmigans: L. m. japonica) is the southernmost of this species, but their origin is little known. Here, we determined the complete mitogenome of this subspecies and carried out the phylogenetic analysis. It was demonstrated that Japanese rock ptarmigans are old divergent lineage.
