Popis: Parupeneus barberinus is a tropical/subtropical reef-dwelling marine fish belonging to the family Mullidae. Herein, we report the first sequencing and assembly of the complete mitochondrial genome of P. barberinus. The complete mitochondrial genome is 16,560 bp long and has the typical vertebrate mitochondrial gene arrangement, consisting of 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes, two rRNA genes, and a control region. Phylogenetic analysis using mitochondrial genomes of 18 species showed that P. barberinus is clustered with P. multifasciatus and P. chrysopleuron and rooted with other Mullidae species. This mitochondrial genome provides potentially important resources for addressing taxonomic issues and studying molecular evolution.
