The complete mitogenome of the Moroccan Luciobarbus rifensis Doadrio, Casal-Lopez & Yahyaoui, 2015 (Actinopterygii: Cyprinidae).

ABSTRACT: The Rifian barbel (Luciobarbus rifensis) is a tetraploid cyprinid species from North Africa. The aim of this work is to characterize the mitogenome of Luciobarbus rifensis in order to contribute in the future exploration of regions. The circular mitogenome of the Rifian barbel (16 607bp) consists of 37 genes (13 protein-coding genes, 2 rRNA genes, and 22 tRNA genes). The cyprinid mitogenome is most related to L. rifensis available is L. capito.
