The complete sequencing of mitochondrial DNA of the Japanese Cormorant Phalacrocorax capillatus was performed using long PCR and primer walking methods. The assembled genome was 19,105 bp in length. It contained 13 protein-coding genes, two ribosomal RNA genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, and two control regions. The phylogenetic analysis using the obtained sequence showed that P. capillatus is closest to P. carbo.
