The complete mitochondrial genome of Allantus togatus (Panzer, 1801), in view of possible cryptic species.

ABSTRACT: The complete Allantus togatus (Panzer, 1801) mitogenome was determined and analyzed. The mitogenome contains typical 37 genes with identical order to Allantoides luctifer mitogenomes. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that A. togatus clustered together with A. viennensis. The wide genetic distances found between lineages of A. togatus lead to the assumption of cryptic species. These complete mitogenomes provide valuable information at the genomic level that can be utilized to sustain bioresources to deepen the understanding of cryptic diversity within Allantinae.
