The complete mitochondrial genome of Neuroctenus taiwanicus (Hemiptera: Aradidae)

Kormilev, 1955 is a flat-bodied and enigmatic bug that was first discovered on the island of Taiwan, China. In this study, the whole mitochondrial genome of was sequenced and annotated for the first time, and its genomic data were uploaded to Genbank feedback number OR675057. The mitochondrial genome of is 15,340 bp in length, a typical circular DNA encoding 37 genes and a control region with 68.4% A + T content. The phylogeny reveals the taxonomic status of , which is most closely related to , and demonstrates the sister relationship among , , and . In addition, the results also confirm that Aradinae and Calisiinae are the earliest branching and more primitive in the family Aradidae, which is consistent with the analysis of the traditional classification.
