Popis: The genus Cuneopsis Simpson, comprises seven valid species, and Cuneopsis celtiformis (Heude, 1874) is the type species of this genus. Previous phylogenetic studies using complete mitochondrial genomes showed that Cuneopsis was not monophyletic, but the result was hampered by incomplete species sampling and lack of the type species of this genus. In this study, we collected C. celtiformis from the type locality and determined its complete maternal mitochondrial genome. This mitogenome is 15,922 bp in length and contains 14 protein-coding genes (including one F-orf), two rRNA genes, 22 tRNA genes, and 1 putative control region. Our mitochondrial phylogenomic analysis confirms that currently recognized genus Cuneopsis is polyphyletic, and C. celtiformis is the closest to C. heudei with high maximum likelihood bootstrap support value. Comprehensive sampling of all Cuneopsis species is needed for phylogenetic analysis to erect new genera in future studies.
