The mitogenome of Paralimna (Paralimna) concors was sequenced. The mitogenome was 16,155 bp totally, consisting of 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), two rRNAs, and 22 transfer RNAs. The nucleotide composition biases toward A and T is 78.6% of the entirety. All PCGs start with ATN codons except COI and ND1, and end with TAA or incomplete stop codon. Phylogenetic analyses based on 11 dipteran species supported the monophyly of Ephydroidea and the relationship of Opomyzoidea + (Ephydroidea + (Lauxanioidea + (Sphaeroceroidea + (Sciomyzoidea + Tephritoidea)))).
