Red-and-white giant flying squirrel () is a widely distributed but rarely studied species. Here, we sequenced the complete mitochondrial genome about it, which is a circular genome of 16,511 bp and have a typical structure with mammals. The base composition shows higher composition of A\T. There are 61 variations and eight base deletions between two sequences when compared with the reported sequence (JQ743657). In this study, we obtain a new mitochondrial genome sequence of red-and-white giant flying squirrel, which provide novel molecular information that could prove fundamental to our understanding of diversity research and phylogenetic structure.
红白鼯鼠（）是一种分布广泛但研究较少的物种。在此，我们对其完整线粒体基因组进行了测序，该基因组为环状，大小为16,511 bp，具有典型的哺乳动物结构。碱基组成显示A\T含量较高。与已报道序列（JQ743657）相比，两条序列之间存在61个变异和8个碱基缺失。在本研究中，我们获得了红白鼯鼠的一个新线粒体基因组序列，这为我们理解多样性研究和系统发育结构提供了新的分子信息，可能具有重要意义。
