Characterization of the Complete Mitochondrial Genome of the Bromeliad Crab (Rathbun, 1896) (Crustacea: Decapoda: Brachyura: Sesarmidae).

is a non-marine crab endemic to Jamaica that dwells in rainforest bromeliads and exhibits elaborate active parental care behavior. Current genomic resources on are rare, limiting the understanding of its adaptation to terrestrial life in species that evolved from marine ancestors. This study reports the complete mitochondrial genome of assembled using Sanger sequencing.
