The first mitochondrial genome from Scopuridae (Insecta: Plecoptera) reveals structural features and phylogenetic implications.

This study determined the first complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of a stonefly, Scopura longa (Plecoptera: Scopuridae), and reconstructed a phylogeny based on two datasets of mitogenomes in eighteen available stoneflies to examine the relationships among Plecoptera. The complete mitogenome of S. longa is a circular molecule of 15,798bp in size.
