Abstract
This study presents the first mitogenome of Daphnia laevis, a species that plays an important ecological role in Brazilian aquatic environments. The mitochondrion is 15,246 bp in size, with 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNAs genes, two rRNAs and d-loop region. Fourteen overlaps were found, a total of 98 bp. The percentages of A, T, C and G were 35.0%, 33.6%, 18.0%, and 13.4%, respectively, with A + T 68.6%. A cluster analysis confirmed that Daphnia laevis is close to other Daphnia species.
