Published: July 2017

In this study, we sequenced and analyzed the complete mitochondrial genome of The mitogenome is 15,600 bp long, and contains 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 tRNA genes, two rRNA genes, and a control region. The gene order and composition are identical with those mitogenomes reported in other mosquito species. The whole base composition is A (39.8%), T (39.2%), G (8.8%), and C (12.2%). The PCGs have the initiation codon ATN except for with a TCG, and possess the complete termination codon TAA or incomplete T. The phylogenetic analysis of known mitogenome sequences was carried out based on the nucleotide sequences of 13 PCGs, and the result showed that , and were claded into the Pipiens Complex in the Pipiens Group, and might be inappropriate to be classified into the Pipiens Group. Whether the mosquito species group with as type should be regarded as a Gelidus Group or Subgroup and its taxonomic position need to be elucidated with more molecular data.
