Abstract:
The mitogenome of Suillia sp. was sequenced as the first representative of the family Heleomyzidae. The mitogenome is 15,660 bp totally, consisting of 13 protein-coding genes, 2 rRNAs, and 22 transfer RNAs. The nucleotide composition biases toward A and T is 75.1% of the entirety. All PCGs start with ATN codons except COI and ND1 and end with TAA or incomplete stop codon. Phylogenetic analyses based on 9 dipteran species supported the relationship of Opomyzoidea + (Ephydroidea + (Lauxanioidea + (Sciomyzoidea + (Sphaeroceroidea + Tephritoidea)))).
