In this study, the complete mitochondrial genomes of five noctuoid moth species, namely, and , were newly sequenced and characterized. Based on our investigations, the five mitogenomes showed sizes of 15409, 15619, 15654, 15403, and 15233 bp, respectively, and encoded 37 genes (13 protein-coding, 2 ribosomal RNA, and 22 transfer RNA genes) and a control region. All protein-coding genes (PCGs) in these mitogenomes had typical ATN start codons except for and .

The gene order of all sequenced mitogenomes was identical consisting of 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 transfer RNA genes (tRNAs), two ribosomal RNA genes (rRNAs), and a non-coding A+T-rich region, which were common to other Lepidopteran insects. All protein-coding genes (PCGs) initiated with a canonical ATN codon and ended with TAN or an incomplete stop codon, single T.

The two circular genomes of I. manlia and R.

The complete mitogenome lengths of Oraesia emarginata, Actinotia polyodon, Odontodes seranensis, and Hyblaea puera were 16,668 bp, 15,347 bp, 15,419 bp, and 15,350 bp, respectively. These mitogenomes were found to encode 37 typical mitochondrial genes (13 protein-coding, 22 transfer RNA, 2 ribosomal RNA) and a control region, similar to most Lepidoptera species.

The complete mitogenome is a circular molecule of 15,575 bp length, consisting of 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), two ribosomal RNA genes ( and ), 22 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes and an A + T-rich region (D-loop). The nucleotide composition of the genome is highly A + T biased, accounting for 80.
