Structural Features and Phylogenetic Implications of Four New Mitogenomes of Caliscelidae (Hemiptera: Fulgoromorpha)

To explore the differences in mitogenome variation and phylogenetics among lineages of the Hemiptera superfamily Fulgoroidea, we sequenced four new mitogenomes of Caliscelidae: two species of the genus <i>Bambusicaliscelis</i> (Caliscelinae: Caliscelini), namely <i>Bambusicalisceli...

description To explore the differences in mitogenome variation and phylogenetics among lineages of the Hemiptera superfamily Fulgoroidea, we sequenced four new mitogenomes of Caliscelidae: two species of the genus <i>Bambusicaliscelis</i> (Caliscelinae: Caliscelini), namely <i>Bambusicaliscelis flavus</i> and <i>B. fanjingensis</i>, and two species of the genus <i>Youtuus</i> (Ommatidiotinae: Augilini), namely <i>Youtuus strigatus</i> and <i>Y. erythrus</i>. The four mitogenomes were 15,922–16,640 bp (base pair) in length, with 37 mitochondrial genes and an AT-rich region. Gene content and arrangement were similar to those of most other sequenced hexapod mitogenomes. All protein-coding genes (PCGs) started with a canonical ATN or GTG and ended with TAA or an incomplete stop codon single T. Except for two transfer RNAs (tRNAs; trnS1 and trnV) lacking a dihydrouridine arm in the four species and trnC lacking a dihydrouridine stem in the <i>Youtuus</i> species, the remaining tRNAs could fold into canonical cloverleaf secondary structures. Phylogenetic analyses based on sequence data of 13 PCGs in the 28 Fulgoroidea species and two outgroups revealed that Delphacidae was monophyletic with strong support. Our data suggest that Fulgoridae is more ancient than Achilidae. Furthermore, Flatidae, Issidae, and Ricaniidae always cluster to form a sister group to Caliscelidae.
