| Popis: | The complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of Pidorus atratus (Lepidoptera: Zygaenoidea: Zygaenidae) is described in this study. The circular molecule is 15,383 bp in length and contains 37 typical mitochondrial genes and one non-coding AT-rich region. All protein-coding genes (PCGs) start with ATN, except for cox1 gene with CGA; 10 of the 13 PCGs harbour the typical stop codon TAA, whereas cox1, cox2, and nad4 end with a single T. Two ribosomal RNA genes (rRNAs) are 1366 bp and 544 bp in length, respectively. The AT-rich region is 658 bp in size and harbours several features characteristic of the lepidopterans, including the motif ATAGA followed by a 20 bp poly-T stretch and a microsatellite-like (TA)9 element. The complete mitogenome data would be useful for further understanding the taxonomy and phylogeny of Zygaenoidea. |
