The complete mitochondrial genome of Epeorus herklotsi (Ephemeroptera: Heptageniidae) and its phylogeny.

ABSTRACT: The mitochondrial genome of Epeorus herklotsi (Ephemeroptera: Heptageniidae) is a circular molecule of 15,801 bp in length with a base composition of 32.7% A, 32.9% T, 21.5% C, 13.0% G, including extra tRNA^Met gene. The IMQM tRNA cluster is found in E. herklotsi as well as Parafornuru youi and two species of Epeorus (KM244708, KJ493406), while the typical IQM tRNA cluster is found in Paegniodes cupulatus. In BI and ML phylogenetic trees, the monophyly of the families Heptageniidae, Baetidae, and Ephemerellidae are highly supported. E. herklotsi is a sister clade to Epeorus sp2. (KJ493406).
