The Antarctic fur seal () is an abundant Antarctic otariid. Here, we present the complete mitochondrial DNA sequence of this species, which includes 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, 2 ribosomal RNA genes, and the control region for a total length of 16,156 bp. A phylogenetic analysis including all 25 publically available pinniped mitogenomes nested the Antarctic fur seal within the Otariid clade, which was clearly resolved from the Phocidae and Odobenidae.
南极毛皮海狮（）是一种数量众多的南极海狗科动物。在此，我们展示了该物种完整的线粒体DNA序列，其包含13个蛋白质编码基因、22个转运RNA基因、2个核糖体RNA基因以及控制区，全长为16,156碱基对。一项包括所有25个公开可得的鳍脚类动物线粒体基因组的系统发育分析将南极毛皮海狮置于海狗科分支内，该分支与海豹科和海象科明显区分开来。
