The first mitochondrial genome of Parastratiosphecomyia (Diptera: Stratiomyidae)

Abstract

The complete mitochondrial genome of Parastratiosphecomyia szechuanensis Lindner, 1954 was sequenced and analyzed in this study. The mitochondrial genome is 16,414 bp in length, including the 37 typical insect mitochondrial genes and a large control region. All PCGs end with complete termination codon TAA or TAG. Most PCGs initiated by standard start codon ATN, except for cox1 which starts with TCG. The phylogenetic analysis based on the nucleotide sequence data of 13 PCGs recovered the monophyly of Stratiomyidae and the sister relationship between Xylomyidae and Stratiomyidae.
