Abstract

The complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenomes) of Cryptotermes declivis were revealed. The circular mitogenome of C. declivis (accession number MK599465) has a length of 15678 bp and an overall G + C content of 35.07%. Genome orientation showed rearrangement. The position of the trnV is moved from the L-strand between rrnL and rrnS to the H-strand between rrnS and trnI. The data further expands arthropod mitogenome databases and provides a case of gene rearrangement.

Keywords: Cryptotermes declivis; mitochondrial genome; phylogenetic tree.
