The first report of complete mitogenomes of two endangered species of genus Propomacrus (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae: Euchirinae) and phylogenetic implications.

To understand the mitochondrial genome structure of two endangered and long-armed scarab beetles, Propomacrus davidi and Propomacrus bimucronatus, their complete mitogenomes were sequenced for the first time in this study. The complete mitogenomes of P. davidi and P.

The complete mitochondrial genome of Distant 1893 (Hemiptera: Tessaratomidae).

In the present study, the complete mitochondrial genome of was identified for the first time. The entire genome is 17,198 bp in length with 73.6% A + T content.

The first record of the monospecific genus (Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae) from China.

Background: The family Nymphalidae is the largest group of butterflies with high species richeness. (Cramer, [1779]), a forest species, was discovered in the mid-stream of the Yuanjiang-Red River Valley of Yunnan Province for the first time, which represents the first record of the genus in China.

New Information: The species (Cramer, [1779]) is the first record of the genus from China.

Complete mitochondrial genome of the Endangered long-armed scarab (Coleoptera: Euchiridae).

The long-armed scarab is an endangered large insect in southwestern China and neighboring countries. Herein, we present the first complete mitochondrial genome of . The 16,899 bp long circular genome consists of 2 ribosomal RNA genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, 13 protein-coding genes, and a non-coding control region.

Strong genetic differentiation among populations of (Coleoptera: Euchiridae) in its native area sheds lights on species conservation.

The long-armed scarab () is an endangered large insect in southwestern China and neighboring countries; however, limited information is available regarding its population genetics, hindering conservation efforts. Therefore, we investigated the population genetic structure and evolutionary history of in southwestern China. Twenty-five haplotypes were obtained from 47 specimens across five populations.
