Abstract:
Parasesarma tripectinis is known as an intertidal crab and inhabits Asian region. This crab has larval release at semilunar rhythm. Here, we report the complete sequence of the mitochondrial genome (mitogenome), which is composed of 15,612 base pair (bp) encoding 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNAs, 2 ribosomal RNAs, and an A + T rich region. The nucleotide composition of P. tripectinis was G + C: 25.8%, A + T: 74.2%, with a strong AT bias. Phylogenetic analysis using whole mitogenome figured out that P. tripectinis was closely related to Sesarma neglectum which belongs to the same family Sesarmidae.
