The complete mitochondrial genome of Agelena silvatica (Araneae: Agelenidae).

ABSTRACT: The complete mitochondrial genome sequence of a funnel-web weaving spider, Agelena silvatica (Agelenidae), was obtained using long PCR and conventional PCR methods. The circular genome is 14,776 bp in length. It contains 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNAs, 2 ribosomal RNAs, and a control region. The A + T content (74.46%) of the all base composition is higher than G + C content (25.54%). Bayesian and maximum likelihood phylogenetic analyses demonstrate that Agelena silvatica is the sister clade of the water spider, Argyroneta aquatica.
