description The sweetpotato weevil, Cylas formicarius elegantulus (Summers) (Coleoptera: Brentidae), is one of the most destructive pests of sweetpotato worldwide. Genomic analyses of sweetpotato weevils can provide insights into their genetic diversity, population structure, and dispersal as well as provide information to support management strategies. Adult sweetpotato weevils were collected by various methods from Ipomoea batatas L. (sweetpotato) or I. coccinea L. (red morning glory) in the U.S. states of Georgia, Hawaii, South Carolina, and Texas. Genomic DNA was extracted from individual weevil specimens and sequenced using Illumina NovaSeq. A total of 181 GB of 150 base pair (bp) paired-end reads were generated for 40 specimens. Mitochondrial genomes were assembled for each specimen via reference mapping and annotated using Geneious Prime. Full mitochondrial genome sequences range from 17,141 to 17,152 bp with an average GC content of 21.8% and average coverage of 3307 × . A maximum likelihood phylogenetic analysis considering the mitochondrial protein coding genes is provided. Mitochondrial genomes and assembled reads are deposited in NCBI GenBank, providing 40 mitogenomes of C. formicarius elegantulus collected in the U.S.
