Abstract:
The complete mitochondrial genome sequence of a desert wolf spider, Halocosa hatanensis (Lycosidae) was reported. The circular molecule is 14,257 base pairs (bp) in length and consisted of 77.8% AT nucleotides, containing two ribosomal RNA genes, 22 transfer RNAs, 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 1 control region, and 1 AT-rich region. The length of 13 PCGs is 10,782 bp in total, encoding 3638 amino acids. The phylogenetic analyses upon mitogenomes proves its relatively basal position within Lycosidae. It would provide further evolutionary research data for the wolf spider family Lycosidae.
