The long-armed scarab is an endangered large insect in southwestern China and neighboring countries. Herein, we present the first complete mitochondrial genome of . The 16,899 bp long circular genome consists of 2 ribosomal RNA genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, 13 protein-coding genes, and a non-coding control region. Phylogenetic analysis showed that shared the closest evolutionary relationship with and that Scarabaeidae and Lucanidae were correctly identified within superfamily Scarabaeoidea. The complete mitogenome sequence will provide a basis for further phylogenetic studies and conservation genetics of the genus .
长臂金龟是中国西南部及周边国家的一种濒危大型昆虫。在此,我们展示了其首个完整的线粒体基因组。这个16,899 bp长的环状基因组由2个核糖体RNA基因、22个转运RNA基因、13个蛋白质编码基因和一个非编码控制区组成。系统发育分析表明,[该物种名称缺失]与[另一物种名称缺失]具有最密切的进化关系,并且在金龟总科内正确鉴定了金龟科和锹甲科。完整的线粒体基因组序列将为该属的进一步系统发育研究和保护遗传学提供基础。
