Popis: Epicauta sibirica is both an important pest and an important economic insect. The mitogenome is 15,717 bp in length and consists of 13 protein-coding genes, 2 rRNA genes, 22 tRNA genes, and a control region. The nucleotide composition of E. sibirica is 37.0% of A, 18.3% of C, 11.3% of G, and 33.4% of T. The genus Epicauta was detected as a monophyletic group and more closely related to the genus Lytta than other genera within Meloidae. This study supplemented additional genetic data for future research on the phylogeny and evolution of Meloidae species.
