The complete mitochondrial genome of the Wuchuan Odorous Frog was 18,256 bp in length including 13 protein-coding genes, 2 rRNA genes, 22 tRNA genes, and a control region and was similar to that of typical vertebrates. The base composition was 27.89% A, 29.00% C, 15.34% G, and 27.78% T. All genes were encoded on the H-strand except and eight tRNA genes (, , , , , , , and ), which were encoded on the L-strand. The phylogenetic relationship of Anura based on complete mitochondrial genomes showed that is closest to with strong support and the genetic distance between Ranidae, Dicroglossidae, and Rhacophoridae was closer than others.
