| Summary: | Casearia glomerata Roxb. is classified in Salicaceae and has a high economic value. Herein, we report the complete chloroplast (cp) genome of C. glomerata using Illumina sequence data. The cp genome is 156,809 bp in length and contains a large single-copy (LSC) region of 84,888 bp and a small single-copy (SSC) region of 17,039 bp separated by two inverted repeat (IR) regions of 27,441 bp each. It contained a total of 123 genes, with an overall GC content of 36.81%. The phylogenetic analysis showed that C. glomerata is closely related to Casearia velutina. This study provides important sequence information for species identification and its phylogenetic relationship in the Salicaceae
