Popis: Aristobia reticulator (Fabricius, 1781) is an important coleopteran pest of guava and litchi in India and China. The draft mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of A. reticulator is ca. 15,838 bp long and consists of 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 2 ribosomal RNA genes, 22 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes, and a control region (MK423971). The nucleotide composition of the mitogenome was significantly A + T-biased (A: 39.3%, T: 39.2%, G: 8.7%, C: 12.8%). All 22 tRNA genes show typical secondary cloverleaf structures. The mitogenome gene content and gene order was as described for a majority of coleopteran species. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that A. reticulator was closely related to Anoplophora chinensis (Forster), Anoplophora glabripennis (Motschulsky), and Anoplophora lurida (Pascoe, 1857) of the coleopteran tribe Lamiini (Cerambycidae, Lamiinae).
