Complete mitochondrial genome of the Xianggelila Hot-spring snake, Thermophis shangrila (Reptilia, Colubridae).

ABSTRACT: The Xianggelila hot-spring snake, Thermophis shangrila (Reptilia, Colubridae), is a species of family Colubridae, which is seen only in Shangri-La, Northern Yunnan, China. Herein, the complete mitochondrial genome of this species has been reported. The total length of the genome was 17,327 bp, and composed of 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes, 2 rRNA genes and 2 control regions. The total base composition was 32.7% for A, 23.7% for T, 13.5% for G and 32.7% for C. The phylogenetic tree with 13 protein-coding genes of T. shangrila together with 12 other closely related species belonging to the family Colubridae was reconstructed.
