We present an assembly and annotation of the mitogenome of a European specimen of the Adzuki bean borer, Ostrinia scapulalis (Walker, 1859). The data were obtained by combining WGS data issue of a de novo and a previously published sequence library (Gschloessl et al., 2018). We also provide the phylogenetic positioning of the mitogenome within the Ostrinia genus, the Crambidae family and with more distant Lepidoptera species.
