The complete mitochondrial genome of the firefly, Abscondita anceyi (Olivier) (Coleoptera: Lampyridae)
We report the complete mitochondrial genome of firefly, Abscondita anceyi (Olivier). The circular genome of 16,519 bp has a base composition of A (43.81%), C (11.80%), G (8.35%), and T (36.03%). Similar to other Metazoa, our sequence contains 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, two ribos...

| Summary: | We report the complete mitochondrial genome of firefly, Abscondita anceyi (Olivier). The circular genome of 16,519 bp has a base composition of A (43.81%), C (11.80%), G (8.35%), and T (36.03%). Similar to other Metazoa, our sequence contains 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, two ribosomal RNA genes, and a non-coding AT-rich region. We sequenced the mitochondrial genome of fireflies to analyse phylogenetic relationships and deduce the evolution of their flashing signals. |
