The Xizang hot-spring snake, (Reptilia, Colubridae), is a relict species of the family Colubridae, which is known only from Tibet, China. In this study, we report the complete mitochondrial genome of this species. The total length of the genome is 17,385 bp, and comprises 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes, 2 rRNA genes, and 2 control regions. The total base composition is 32.5% for A, 23.8% for T, 13.5% for G, and 30.2% for C. The phylogenetic tree with 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs) of . together with 12 other closely related species belonging to the family Colubridae was built, in order to prove the validity of the mitogenome of . .
西藏温泉蛇（爬行纲，游蛇科）是游蛇科的一个孑遗物种，仅分布于中国西藏。在本研究中，我们报道了该物种的完整线粒体基因组。基因组全长17385 bp，包括13个蛋白质编码基因、22个tRNA基因、2个rRNA基因和2个控制区。碱基总组成中，A占32.5%，T占23.8%，G占13.5%，C占30.2%。构建了包含西藏温泉蛇13个蛋白质编码基因以及游蛇科其他12个近缘物种的系统发育树，以验证西藏温泉蛇线粒体基因组的有效性。
