The complete mitochondrial genome of Monolepta occifuvis Gressitt & Kimoto (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae: Galerucinae)

The complete mitochondrial (mt) genome of Monolepta occifuvis Gressitt & Kimoto (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae: Galerucinae) was sequenced with 15,998 bp long. The sequenced genome has the standard metazoan complement of 37 genes and an A + T-rich region which is consistent with insect ancestral gen...

Description
Summary:The complete mitochondrial (mt) genome of Monolepta occifuvis Gressitt & Kimoto (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae: Galerucinae) was sequenced with 15,998 bp long. The sequenced genome has the standard metazoan complement of 37 genes and an A + T-rich region which is consistent with insect ancestral genome arrangement. All protein-coding genes (PCGs) initiate with ATN except that nad1 initiates with TTG. The control region occupied 1,407 bp with two conserved blocks. The phylogenetic results support Alticinae as a separate subfamily and being the sister group to Galerucinae while the monophyly of Galerucinae was not recovered.
