Abstract:
Anthomyza sp. belongs to family Anthomyzidae of superfamily Opomyzoidea. The mitogenome of Anthomyza sp. was sequenced as the first representative of the family. The mitogenome is 16,308 bp totally, consisting of 13 protein-coding genes, 2 rRNAs and 22 transfer RNAs and control region. Anthomyza sp. has the similar gene structures with other published species of Acalyptratae. The nucleotide composition biases toward A and T is 78.7% of the entirety. IQ-TREE analysis recovered the monophyly of Opomyzoidea, which is inferred from 12 species. It indicated that Opomyzoidea is assigned to be the sister of the clade of (Ephydroidea + (Tephritoidea + Lauxanioidea)).
