has been classified as a national second-class protected orchid species in China. In this study, we report and characterize the complete chloroplast (cp) genome sequence of . in an effort to provide genomic resources useful for promoting its conservation and systematic research. The complete genome is 159,010 bp in length and the overall GC content is 43.3%. The cp genome sequence has a typical quadripartite structure, comprising two inverted repeats (IRA and IRB) regions, which are separated by a small singlecopy (SSC) region and a large singlecopy (LSC) region. Moreover, a total of 135 functional genes were annotated, including 89 protein-coding genes, 38 tRNA genes, and 8 rRNA genes. The phylogenetic analysis recovered a close relationship between and , and both species are placed within the tribe Arethuseae (Orchidaceae).
