Complete mitochondrial genome of Eupteryx(Stacla) minusula (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae: Typhlocybinae) from China

Abstract

The complete mitochondrial genome of the leafhopper species Eupteryx (Stacla) minusula (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae: Typhlocybinae) are sequenced and annotated. The mitochondrial genome is 16945 bp, and nucleotide composition of the whole mitogenome is highly A + T biased (A: 43.6%; T: 35.2%, G: 11.3%, C: 9.9%). 11 PCGs have ATN as the start codon, except for atp8 and nad5 genes have TTG. The conventional termination codons (TAA or TAG) occur in 11 PCGs, while cox2 and nad5 uses incomplete codon (T) as termination codon. The complete mitogenome sequence of Eupteryx (Stacla) minusula is available in the GenBank with accession number: MN910279.
