The complete mitogenome of Gunungidia aurantiifasciata (GenBank accession number MT012904) is 15,472 bp in length, and contains 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 transfer RNA genes (tRNAs), two ribosomal RNA genes, and a putative control region. The overall base composition is A (40.01%), C (11.93%), G (10.63%) and T (37.43%), demonstrating an obvious bias of high AT content (77.44%). ATG, ATA, ATT, TTG were initiation codons and TAA, TAG, and T were termination codons. All 22 tRNAs have the typical cloverleaf secondary structure, with an exception for trnS1 (AGN). The phylogenetic relationship based on neighbor-joining method showed that G. aurantiifasciata is clustered with two Typhlocybinae species, which agree with the conventional taxonomy.
