Abstract

We reported one mitochondrial genome of Brachystomella parvula assembled from Illumina sequencing and discussed its phylogenetic position within Poduromorpha. Our mitochondrial assembly has a length of 15,002 bp, consisting of 36 genes (13 protein-coding genes, 21 transfer RNA genes, and two ribosomal RNA genes) with tRNA^Ser unsuccessfully assembled. Its gene composition and order were similar to most reported invertebrates. The overall base composition is 36.6% for A, 34.8% for T, 16.8% for C, and 11.8% for G.

Keywords: Brachystomellidae; gene order; mitogenome; phylogeny.
