The complete mitogenome of the blackgill catshark, Parmaturus melanobranchus (Chan, 1966).

ABSTRACT: A rare specimen of Parmaturus melanobranchus was collected from the South China Sea. The complete mitochondrial genome of the specimen was sequenced using Illumina Hiseq platform and assembled with Geneious and Trinity. The mitogenome is 16,687 bp long with a base composition of 30.4% A, 14.1% G, 23.5% C and 32.1% T, respectively. A total of 37 genes were predicted containing 13 protein-coding genes, 2 ribosomal RNA genes and 22 transfer RNA genes. This is the first complete mitochondrial genome published of this species.
