The complete mitochondrial genome of the firefly, Curtos costipennis (Coleoptera: Lampyridae)
We report the complete mitochondrial genome of firefly, Curtos costipennis. The circular genome of 16,626 bp and has a base composition of A (44.44%), C (11.36%), G (7.61%), and T (36.58%). Our sequence is similar to other Metazoa, which contains 13 protein-coding genes. All 13 protein-coding genes...

| description | We report the complete mitochondrial genome of firefly, Curtos costipennis. The circular genome of 16,626 bp and has a base composition of A (44.44%), C (11.36%), G (7.61%), and T (36.58%). Our sequence is similar to other Metazoa, which contains 13 protein-coding genes. All 13 protein-coding genes were initiated by the ATN (ATT, ATA, and ATG) codon. Nine protein-coding genes stopped with TAA or TAG codon and the other four genes have an incomplete termination codon, a single T. We sequenced the mitochondrial genome of fireflies to analyze phylogenetic relationships and deduce the evolution of their flashing signals |
