In this study, we reportted the complete mitochondrial genome of Otocolobus manul. The circular genome was 16,672 bp in length, containing 13 protein coding genes (PCGs), 22 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes, 2 ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes, and 1 non-coding control region. The overall nucleotide composition was as follows: A, 33.1%; T, 27.8%; C, 25.6%; and G, 13.5%, with a total A + T content of 60.9%. The phylogenetic analysis demonstrated a close relationship between O. manul and species in Felis.
