The present study reports, for the first time, the complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of . The total mitogenome length of was 15,303 bp with 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 2 ribosomal RNAs (rRNAs), 22 transfer RNAs (tRNAs), and 1 non-coding region. Phylogenetic analysis showed that belonged to the same family.

The first record of the non-indigenous, alien amphipod in the Lam Ta Khong River is presented. Previously, this Indo-Pacific amphipod had only been reported in the Indian Ocean, the Andaman Sea, the Gulf of Thailand, the South China Sea and Australia. In Thailand, was previously reported in an isolated pond in Bangkok.

Article Synopsis
  • The complete mitochondrial genome of an eastern Asian Nereididae species was sequenced for the first time, measuring 14,917 base pairs and comprising 13 protein-coding genes, 2 rRNA genes, 22 tRNA genes, and a non-coding region.
  • The gene order found in this species matches that of four other similar nereidid species, indicating a consistent genetic structure among them.
  • Phylogenetic analysis shows this species is closely related to certain other polychaetes, particularly within a clade that includes specific known species, confirmed by a high bootstrap support value.
