Abstract

The mitochondrial genome of Melanostoma orientale has been decoded by Illumina sequencing. The mitogenomic size is 16,229 bp with 40.96% A, 40.29% T, 10.60% C, and 8.15% G. It is encoded with 13 protein-coding genes, 2 ribosomal RNA, and 22 transfer RNAs. The phylogenetic tree showed that 10 species of Syrphidae, belonging to six genera, were clustered into two clades. This is the first mitochondrial genome for the genus Melanostoma.
