Abstract

The complete mitochondrial genome of Viverricula indica taivana, exclusive of tandem repeats within the control region, is 16,583 bp in length, with a total base composition of: 33.18% A, 28.93% T, 24.88% C, and 13.00% G in H-strand. The genome contains 37 genes, including 13 protein-coding genes, 2 ribosomal RNA genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, and 1 control region.

Keywords: Feliformia; Viverricula indica; mitochondrial DNA; small Indian civet.
