The nearly complete mitochondrial genome of Colochela zhongi Wei, 2016 (Hymenoptera: Tenthredinidae) and phylogenetic analysis

Abstract

We assembled the near-complete mitochondrial genome of Colochela zhongi Wei, 2016 with next-generation sequencing (NGS). The total genome size of C. zhongi was 15,095 bp with 80.6% A + T content, containing 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 tRNA genes, and two rRNA genes. Three tRNA genes rearrangements were found compared to the ancestral organization. Phylogenetic analysis results based on heterogeneity models of 46 Symphytan and two Apocritan strongly supported that C. zhongi was closely related to Siobla xizangensis.
