The complete chloroplast genome sequence of rare and endangered Camellia lungzhouensis (Theaceae) was reported in this study. The cp genome was 157,110 bp in length with a GC content of 62.70%, including LSC (86,653 bp), SSC (18,277 bp), and two reverse repeat sequence regions (26,090 bp). The genome encoded 136 functional genes, including 84 protein-coding genes, 44 tRNA genes, and eight rRNA genes. The phylogenetic analysis showed that C. lungzhouensis was closely related to C. petelotii and C. nitidissima.
