We sequenced and characterized the complete mitochondrial genome from normal colour (grey black) and mutant colour (orangey red) of Luciobarbus capito. Both mitogenomes contained the typical complement of 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNAs (tRNAs), two ribosomal RNAs (rRNAs), and a non-coding control region. They share the same gene arrangement pattern that was identical with most vertebrates. The entire mitochondrial DNA molecule of grey black L. capito was 16603-bp long, while the complete mtDNA molecule of orangey red L. capito was 16607-bp long.
