The horn-nosed boxfish, (Tetraodontiformes: Ostraciidae) is a toxic marine species inhabiting tropical coral reefs. In this study, we first reported its whole mitochondrial genome sequence. The complete mitochondrial genome, 16 483 bp with an AT ratio of 56.8%, is composed of 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNAs, 2 ribosomal RNAs and an 826-bp D-loop control region. The molecular-based phylogenetic tree indicated that has close affinities with fishes from family Ostraciidae as expected.
角鼻箱鲀（鲀形目：箱鲀科）是一种栖息于热带珊瑚礁的有毒海洋物种。在本研究中，我们首次报道了其完整的线粒体基因组序列。完整的线粒体基因组为16483 bp，AT含量为56.8%，由13个蛋白质编码基因、22个转运RNA、2个核糖体RNA和一个826 bp的D环控制区组成。基于分子的系统发育树表明，正如预期的那样，角鼻箱鲀与箱鲀科鱼类关系密切。
