The complete mitochondrial genome of Neoris haraldi Schawerda (Lepidoptera: Saturniidae).

ABSTRACT: As an important insect pest on desert vegetation, Neoris haraldi has already brought great damage on Populus euphratica that was a key plant in the desert areas. Here, the complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of N. haraldi has been sequenced with 15,383 bp in length. The mitogenome has a base composition of A (39.4%), T (40.3%), C (12.4%), and G (7.9%), and consists of 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes, 2 ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes, and an A + T-rich region. The phylogenetic relationships among the saturniid species were (Neoris haraldi+ ((Attacus atlas+ (Samia cynthia + (Samia canningi + Samia ricini))) + ((Eriogyna pyretorum + Saturnia boisduvalii) + ((Actias artemis + Actias
