The complete mitogenome of the Atlantic spiny lumpsucker (Eumicrotremus spinosus) was generated using the PacBio Sequel II HiFi sequencing platform. The mitogenome assembly has a length of 19,281 bp and contains 13 protein-coding sequences, 22 tRNA genes, 2 rRNA genes, one control region containing the D-loop (2383 bp) and a duplicate control region (1133 bp) Phylogenetic analysis using maximum likelihood revealed that E. spinosus is closely related to the Siberian lumpsucker (E. asperrimus). The mitogenome of the spiny lumpsucker will be useful in population genomics and systematic studies of Cyclopteridae, Liparidae, and Cottidae.
