Comparative mitogenomic analysis of two earwigs (Insecta, Dermaptera) and the preliminary phylogenetic implications.

ABSTRACT: The phylogenetic position and inner relationships of Dermaptera remain unresolved despite the numerous efforts using morphological and molecular data. To facilitate the resolution of problems, this study sequenced the complete mitogenome of Apachyusfeae de Bormans, 1894 (Apachyidae) and the nearly complete mitogenome of Diplatysflavicollis Shiraki, 1907 (Diplatyidae). The 19,029-bp long mitogenome of A.feae exhibited an extra trnV gene and two control regions in addition to the typical set of 37 genes including 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes, and two ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes. The 12,950-bp long partially sequenced mitogenome of D.flavicollis was composed of 10 and a partial fragment of PCGs, 18 tRNA genes, two rRNA genes, a
