Abstract:
Species of Gampsocleis have a long history as singing pets in China. The complete mitochondrial genome of Gampsocleis fletcheri (Burr, 1899) is 15,719 bp in size. It consists of 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 tRNA genes, two rRNA genes, and an A + T-rich region. The base composition of G. fletcheri mitochondrial genome is A (34.7%), T (30.4%), G (12.0%), and C (22.9%), with an A + T bias (65.1%). Phylogenetic analyses based on the 13 PCGs showed that G. fletcheri was sister to G. gratiosa. The present genomic-level and male genitalia evidences support to restore the taxonomic status of G. fletcheri.
