The complete mitochondrial genome of the Korean endemic earthworm Amynthas deogyusanensis (Clitellata: Megascolecidae).


ABSTRACT: The Korean endemic earthworm Amynthas deogyusanensis Hong and James, 2001 (Clitellata: Megascolecidae) is found in the forest area of Deogyu Mountain, South Korea. In this study, the complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of A. deogyusanensis was sequenced, assembled, and annotated. The mitogenome of A. deogyusanensis is a circular DNA molecule, consisting of 15,257 bp with an A + T content of 67.9%. It contains 13 protein-coding genes, two ribosomal RNA genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, and one non-coding region (control region). Phylogenetic analysis suggested that the family Megascolecidae is a monophyletic group with full support, whereas the genus Amynthas is non-monophyletic with the genera Metaphire and Duplodicodrilus.
