Complete mitochondrial genome of the Woodland Brown, Scopoli, 1763 (Nymphalidae: Satyrinae) and its phylogenetic analysis.

In this study, the complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of the Woodland Brown, Scopoli, 1763 (Nymphalidae: Satyrinae) was determined to be 15,284 bp in size, including 37 typical mitochondrial genes and a control region. The gene content and arrangement of the mitogenome are identical to that of the majority of other sequenced nymphalids. All protein-coding genes (PCGs) are started with the conventional ATN codons, except for gene which is initiated by atypical CGA(R) codon.

The complete mitochondrial genome sequence of (Lepidoptera: Riodinidae).

The complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) sequence of (Lepidoptera: Riodinidae) was determined and analyzed. The mitogenome is 15,680 bp in length with consisting of 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 transfer RNA () genes, two ribosomal genes ( and ), and one AT-rich region. The gene content, orientation, and order are identical to that of the majority of other lepidopteran insects.

The complete mitochondrial genome of comma, (Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae: Nymphalinae).

The mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of (Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae: Nymphalinae) is determined to be 15,209 bp in length and shows AT bias (80.6%). Similar to other butterflies, it contains 37 typical mitochondrial genes and one AT-rich region (D-loop).

Morphological characters are compatible with mitogenomic data in resolving the phylogeny of nymphalid butterflies (lepidoptera: papilionoidea: nymphalidae).

Nymphalidae is the largest family of butterflies with their phylogenetic relationships not adequately approached to date. The mitochondrial genomes (mitogenomes) of 11 new nymphalid species were reported and a comparative mitogenomic analysis was conducted together with other 22 available nymphalid mitogenomes. A phylogenetic analysis of the 33 species from all 13 currently recognized nymphalid subfamilies was done based on the mitogenomic data set with three Lycaenidae species as the outgroups.

The first mitochondrial genome for the butterfly family Riodinidae (Abisara fylloides) and its systematic implications.

The Riodinidae is one of the lepidopteran butterfly families. This study describes the complete mitochondrial genome of the butterfly species Abisara fylloides, the first mitochondrial genome of the Riodinidae family. The results show that the entire mitochondrial genome of A.

Complete mitochondrial genome of the Common Evening Brown, Melanitis leda Linnaeus (Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae: Satyrinae).

The complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of Melanitis leda (Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae: Satyrinae) is a circular molecule of 15,122 bp in length, containing 37 typical animal mitochondrial genes and 1 control region, known in insects as the AT-rich region. Its gene content and order are identical to all other available butterfly mitogenomes. All protein-coding genes (PCGs) start with a typical ATN initiation codon, except for COI, which is initiated by the CGA codon as observed in other butterfly species.

Complete mitogenome of the Painted Jezebel, Delias hyparete Linnaeus (Lepidoptera: Pieridae) and its comparison with other butterfly species.

In the present study, we report the first complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of the Painted Jezebel, Delias hyparete. The mitogenome of Delias hyparete is 15 186 bp in length, and has typical sets of 37 genes: 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 2 ribosomal RNAs, 22 transfer RNAs and a non-coding A+T-rich region. All protein-coding genes are initiated by ATN codons, except for COI, which is tentatively designated by the CGA codon, as observed in other butterfly species.

Complete mitogenome of the Lesser Purple Emperor Apatura ilia (Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae: Apaturinae) and comparison with other nymphalid butterflies.

The complete mitochondrial genome of Apatura ilia (GenBank accession no. JF437925) was determined as a circular DNA molecule of 15 242 bp, with common genes of 13 putative proteins, 2 rRNAs, and 22 tRNAs and of the same gene arrangement as in other sequenced lepidopterans. All protein-coding genes had the typical start codon ATN, except for the COI's using CGA as its start codon as previously demonstrated in other lepidopteran species.
