Here, we recovered 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNAs, 2 ribosomal RNAs and a partial control region, resulting in a mitogenome length of 15,545bp. All protein-coding genes were initiated by the typical ATN codon except <i>nad3</i> and <i>nad1</i>, which utilizes the TTG codon. Four protein-coding genes (<i>cox1</i>, <i>cox2</i>, <i>cox3</i> and <i>nad5</i>) are terminated by an incomplete stop codon T, while others end with either a TAA or TAG codon. The intergenic spacer region, S5, is absent in this mitogenome, supporting the lack of this region as a specific character in damselflies. Phylogenetic analysis shoMitochondrial DNA.
