The Günther's frog () belongs to a member of the family Ranidae. We provide a complete mitogenome of and examine its phylogenetic position with other related species. Its mitogenome is a closed circular molecule 18,698 bp in length including 13 protein coding genes, 22 tRNA coding genes, two rRNA-coding genes, and a control region (CR) that are conserved in most Ranidae mitogenomes. The overall base composition of the mitogenome is 29.27% A, 30.45% T, 26.14% C, and 14.15% G, which is typical for Amphibious animals' mitochondrial genomes. The alignment of the Ranidae species control regions showed high levels of genetic variation and abundant AT content. Seven tandem repeats were found in the control region. Phylogenetic analysis with Bayesian inference and maximum likelihood based on 13 protein-coding genes indicated that is more closely related to than to and . The complete mitogenome of provides a potentially useful resource for further exploration of the taxonomic status and phylogenetic relationships of and related species.
冈瑟氏蛙（）属于蛙科成员。我们提供了其完整的线粒体基因组，并研究了它与其他相关物种的系统发育位置。其线粒体基因组是一个长度为18,698 bp的闭合环状分子，包括13个蛋白质编码基因、22个tRNA编码基因、两个rRNA编码基因以及一个控制区（CR），这些在大多数蛙科线粒体基因组中都是保守的。冈瑟氏蛙线粒体基因组的总体碱基组成为29.27%A、30.45%T、26.14%C和14.15%G，这是两栖动物线粒体基因组的典型特征。蛙科物种控制区的比对显示出高水平的遗传变异和丰富的AT含量。在控制区发现了七个串联重复序列。基于13个蛋白质编码基因的贝叶斯推断和最大似然法的系统发育分析表明，冈瑟氏蛙与（此处两个物种名原文缺失）的关系比与（此处两个物种名原文缺失）的关系更密切。冈瑟氏蛙的完整线粒体基因组为进一步探索冈瑟氏蛙及其相关物种的分类地位和系统发育关系提供了潜在的有用资源。
