Abstract

We report the mitochondrial genome of Muscicapa latirostris. The overall base composition of the Asian brown flycatcher mitogenome is 24.31% T, 31.62% C, 29.62% A, and 14.44% G, with an A + T content of 53.93%. The total length of the sequence is 18,026 bp (13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, 2 ribosomal RNA genes, and 2 control regions). Phylogenetic analysis was performed based on the concatenated nucleotide sequences of cytochrome c oxidase subunit I and cytochrome b using the neighbor-joining method and the Kimura 2-parameter model in MEGA 7.0 with 1000 bootstrap replicates.

Keywords: Asian brown flycatcher; Muscicapa latirostris; mitochondrial genome; phylogenetic analysis.
