Complete mitochondrial genome of Leptaulax koreanus (Coleoptera: Passalidae), a Korean endemic bess beetle

In the present paper, we make a first report on the complete mitochondrial DNA genome of Leptaulax koreanus, a Korean endemic species, in Passalidae. The mitogenome is 18,730 base pairs with 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNAs, 2 rRNAs, and a 4240 bp long AT-rich region. The overall base composition i...

description In the present paper, we make a first report on the complete mitochondrial DNA genome of Leptaulax koreanus, a Korean endemic species, in Passalidae. The mitogenome is 18,730 base pairs with 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNAs, 2 rRNAs, and a 4240 bp long AT-rich region. The overall base composition is 78.4% AT and 21.6% GC. The maximum likelihood analysis suggested that L. koreanus is a sister to other Scarabaeoidea species.
