is a ubiquitous invasive species and widely distributed in subtropical and tropical regions around the world. Here, we sequenced and annotated the complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of . This mitogenome was 15,499 bp long and encoded 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 transfer RNA genes (tRNAs), and 2 ribosomal RNA unit genes (rRNAs). Compared to other Formicidae species, gene order of was not conserved and one tRNA cluster -- converted to --. The whole mitogenome exhibited heavy AT nucleotide bias (79.5%). All PCGs started with the standard ATN codons. Except for and end with the incomplete codon T-, all PCGs terminated with the stop codon TAA. Phylogenetic analysis showed that got together with three same subfamily Dolichoderinae species and one Dorylinae species, indicating the close relationship of Dolichoderinae and Dorylinae.
是一种分布广泛的入侵物种，在世界各地的亚热带和热带地区均有分布。在此，我们对 的完整线粒体基因组（线粒体基因组）进行了测序和注释。该线粒体基因组长度为15499 bp，编码13个蛋白质编码基因（PCGs）、22个转运RNA基因（tRNAs）和2个核糖体RNA单位基因（rRNAs）。与其他蚁科物种相比， 的基因顺序不保守，一个tRNA簇——转换为——。整个线粒体基因组表现出强烈的AT核苷酸偏向性（79.5%）。所有PCGs均以标准的ATN密码子起始。除了 和 以不完整密码子T-结尾外，所有PCGs均以终止密码子TAA结束。系统发育分析表明， 与三个同亚科的弓背蚁属物种和一个行军蚁亚科物种聚在一起，表明弓背蚁属和行军蚁亚科关系密切。
