In the present study, we presented the complete mitochondrial genome of Aspergillus sp. The complete mitochondrial genome of Aspergillus sp. was composed of circular DNA molecules, with a total length of 31,374 bp. The base composition of this mitochondrial genome is as follows: A (36.25%), T (38.09%), G (14.55%), and C (11.10%). The mitochondrial genome contains 18 protein-coding genes, 2 ribosomal RNA genes (rRNA), and 31 transfer RNA genes. The taxonomic status of the Aspergillus sp. mitochondrial genome exhibits a closest relationship with Aspergillus ustus and A. flavus.
