The complete mitogenome of the jumping spider Carrhotus xanthogramma was determined and comparative analysis among four salticid mitogenomes was conducted. The circular genome is 14,563 bp in size and contains a complete set of genes that usually present in the metazoa. All of the 13 protein-coding genes begin with a typical ATN codon and stop with the canonical stop codons, except for ND4 and ND4L genes with an incomplete stop codon T.

Mitogenomes can provide information for phylogenetic analysis and evolutionary biology. The Araneae is one of the largest orders of Arachnida with great economic importance. In order to develop mitogenome data for this significant group, we determined the complete mitogenomes of two long jawed spiders Tetragnatha maxillosa and T.

The complete mitochondrial genome of an orb-weaving spider Neoscona theisi (Walckenaer) is determined in this article. It is a typical circular duplex DNA molecule with a length of 14,156 bp, which encodes the same 37 genes as all metazoan mitogenomes and an A + T-rich region (D-loop). The overall A + T content is 75.
