The complete mitochondrial genome of a cryptic amphipod species from the Gammarus fossarum complex
The freshwater amphipod Gammarus fossarum is widely distributed throughout Europe and an important species for stream biomonitoring. It is known to consist of several cryptic species. We here report the complete mitochondrial genome of G. fossarum clade 11/type B with a length of 15,989 bp, encoding...

| description | The freshwater amphipod Gammarus fossarum is widely distributed throughout Europe and an important species for stream biomonitoring. It is known to consist of several cryptic species. We here report the complete mitochondrial genome of G. fossarum clade 11/type B with a length of 15,989 bp, encoding for 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes, and 2 rRNA genes. Protein-coding and ribosomal genes have a similar arrangement as in other gammarid amphipods. A phylogenetic analysis clarifies the placement of G. fossarum within the Gammaridae. |
