Complete mitochondrial genome and the phylogenetic position of Halcyon smyrnensis (Aves: Coraciiformes).

ABSTRACT: The complete mitochondrial genome of Halcyon smyrnensis was determined in this study. The mitogenomic length of Halcyon smyrnensis was 17 318 bp, including 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, two ribosomal RNA genes and one control region. Phylogenetic analyses show that H. leucocephala, H. pileata and H. smyrnensis congregated together, and our sample was sister to H. pileata.
