The Himalayan Beautiful Rosefinch , belongs to the family Fringillidae, distributed in central Himalayas from India (Himachal Pradesh) to southwest China and Bhutan. The conservation status of this species is least concern (LC) in IUCN. In this study, the complete mitogenome of was determined. The mitogenome is a circular molecule of 16,797 bp in length, containing 13 protein-coding genes, 2 ribosome RNA genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, and 1 non-coding region. We reconstructed a phylogenetic tree based on Bayesian inference for other 14 Fringillidae species. The new mitogenome data would provide useful information for application in conservation genetics and further clarify phylogenetic evolution of this species.
喜马拉雅朱雀属于燕雀科，分布于从印度（喜马偕尔邦）到中国西南部和不丹的喜马拉雅山脉中部。该物种在世界自然保护联盟（IUCN）的保护状况为无危（LC）。在本研究中，测定了其完整的线粒体基因组。该线粒体基因组是一个长度为16,797 bp的环状分子，包含13个蛋白质编码基因、2个核糖体RNA基因、22个转运RNA基因和1个非编码区。我们基于贝叶斯推断为其他14种燕雀科物种重建了系统发育树。新的线粒体基因组数据将为保护遗传学的应用提供有用信息，并进一步阐明该物种的系统发育进化。
