Abstract

In this study, we sequenced the complete mitochondrial genome of Agriotes fuscicollis Miwa, 1928 (Coleoptera: Elateridae). The results showed that the length of complete mitochondrial genome was 15,866 bp with 26.8% GC content, containing 39.6% A, 33.5% T, 16.8% C, 10% G. There were 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 transfer RNA genes, and 2 ribosomal RNA genes. Phylogenetic analysis showed that A. fuscicollis was closely related to Cryptalaus larvatus, Cryptalaus yamato, Pyrophorus divergens and Ignelater luminosus. The complete mitogenome of A. fuscicollis would contribute to the study of the phylogeny and evolution of Elateridae.
