The family Hippoboscidae is an ectoparasite that primarily inhabits bats and relies on the host's blood for sustenance. This research provides the first complete mitochondrial genome of <i>Nycteribia formosana</i>, which shares similar characteristics with other dipteran insects. The circularized mitochondrial genome, spanning 15,107 bp, encompasses 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 transfer RNA genes (tRNA), two ribosomal RNA genes, and a control region. The nucleotide composition of A, C, G, ...[more]
