() was once a dominating grasshopper in the Yunnan province (People's Republic of China) that occupy important ecological niche. However, its population has severely declined because of the deterioration of ecological environment. Identifying the species and source of is important for biodiversity conservation and ecological/environmental preservation. In the study, the complete mitochondrial genome of was assembled from high-coverage (36.8×) Illumina MiSeq sequencing data. The circular genome is 15,450 bp in length, harboring 37 typical mitochondrial genes and one control region. The nucleotide composition is asymmetric (43.0% A, 14.3% C, 10.5% G, and 32.2% T), with an overall A + T content of 75.2%. All the protein-coding genes (PCGs) are initiated with typical ATN start codons and terminated by the typical TAA codons or the incomplete T(aa) codon. The control region has a remarkably high A + T content (84.9%) and is located between genes .
（）曾是中华人民共和国云南省一种占据重要生态位的优势蝗虫。然而，由于生态环境恶化，其种群数量急剧下降。确定（）的物种和来源对于生物多样性保护以及生态/环境保护至关重要。在本研究中，利用高覆盖度（36.8×）的Illumina MiSeq测序数据组装得到了（）的完整线粒体基因组。该环状基因组长度为15450 bp，包含37个典型的线粒体基因和一个控制区。核苷酸组成不对称（A占43.0%、C占14.3%、G占10.5%、T占32.2%），A+T总含量为75.2%。所有蛋白质编码基因（PCGs）均以典型的ATN起始密码子起始，并以典型的TAA密码子或不完整的T（aa）密码子终止。控制区的A+T含量极高（84.9%），位于基因之间。
