Abstract

The complete mitochondrial genome of Tomocerus caputiviolaceus was sequenced and assembled. The complete mitochondrial genome is 15,519 bp in length. The mitogenome contained 37 genes, including 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 tRNAs, and two rRNAs. In phylogenetic analysis based on the nucleotide sequences of 13 PCGs, T. caputiviolaceus is closely related to Tomocerus qinae Yu, Yao & Hu, 2016, both of which belong to the genus Tomocerus within the family Tomoceridae.

Keywords: Springtail; Tomoceridae; complete mitochondrial genome; phylogenetic analysis.
