The complete mitochondrial genome of Otus sunia was 17,835 bp in length and its overall base composition was estimated to be 31.0% for A, 23.3% for T, 32.4% for C, and 13.3% for G. It consisted of the typical structure of 13 PCGs, 2 ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes, 22 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes, and 1 control region. The phylogenetic analysis demonstrated that O. sunia was more closely related to O. scops than O. bakkamoena.
