The complete mitochondrial genome of the smudged eighty-eight butterfly Diaethria gabaza eupepla (Salvin & Godman, 1868) (Insecta: Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae).


ABSTRACT: The smudged eighty-eight butterfly Diaethria gabaza eupepla (Salvin & Godman, 1868) (Nymphalidae) is a vividly colored aposematic butterfly from Central and South America. A complete circular mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of 15,156 bp from D. gabaza eupepla was assembled from a genome skimming Illumina sequence library. The AT-rich (80.5% AT) mitogenome consists of 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNAs, 2 rRNAs, and a control region in the typical butterfly gene order. Diaethria gabaza eupepla COX1 begins with an atypical CGA start codon and ATP6, COX1, COX2, CYTB, ND1, ND4, ND4L, and ND5 mRNAs contain incomplete stop codons completed by the addition of 3' A residues. Phylogenetic reconstruction places Diaethria as the sister clade to Hamadryas within monophyletic nymphalid subfamily Biblidinae, consistent with previous phylogenetic hypotheses.
