(Niethammer, 1975) is one of the commensal rodent species in South China. With the development of transportation and climate change, has gradually migrated north and become the dominant rat species for the past few years. In this study, we assembled a complete mitochondrial genome of , captured from North China. The mitogenome contains 16,307 nucleotide pairs, including 13 protein-coding genes, 2 ribosomal RNA genes, and 22 transfer RNA genes, as well as one non-coding control region. Based on whole mitogenome phylogenetical analysis showed that captured from North China had a close phylogenetic relationship with that from Japan and South Korea. These findings are valuable for further studies on the evolution, genetic diversity, and taxonomy of Asian commensal rodent.
