Abstract

The complete mitochondrial genome of Cimbex luteus was sequenced with 15,127 bp in length. The mitogenome includes 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNAs, two ribosomal RNAs genes, and an AT-rich region. The nucleotide compositions of C. luteus (43.7% A, 38.0% T, 7.4% G, and 10.9% C) were biased toward A and T. Based on Bayesian inference (BI) and Maximum Likelihood (ML) analyses, C. luteus was identified as one of the basal lineages of family Cimbicidae.
