Description
Summary:The mitochondrial genome of the Endangered freshwater snail Koreoleptoxis nodifila (Caenogastropoda: Semisulcospiridae) from South Korea is determined and characterized in detail. It is 15,737 bp in length being composed of 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 transfer RNA genes (tRNAs), two ribosomal RNA genes (rRNAs), and one control region. It has a base composition of 31.23% for A, 16.29% for G, 17.84% for C, and 34.64% for T. The phylogenetic trees reconstructed based on the maximum-likelihood (ML) method and Bayesian inference (BI) confirmed that K. nodifila belongs to the Semisulcospiridae clade in the monophyletic caeonogastropod superfamily Cerithioidea.
