The Kuruma shrimp is economic important species in the shrimp fishery and aquaculture. However, it is a species complex consisting of two cryptic species (Form I and Form II), which can be difficult to identify based on morphology. Here, we report the complete mitochondrial genome sequence of (Form II) from Beibu Bay. The mitogenome has 15,966 base pairs and made up of total of 37 genes (13 protein-coding, 22 transfer RNAs and 2 ribosomal RNAs), and a putative control region. There were 1029 mutations sites between these two cryptic species, and the most variable sites were putative control region. This study adds a distinct mitogenome of (Form II) and will provide useful genetic information for future genetic variation identification and genetic diversity evaluation of this economic valuable shrimp.
斑节对虾是虾类渔业和水产养殖中的重要经济物种。然而，它是一个由两个隐存种（形态I和形态II）组成的物种复合体，基于形态学可能难以识别。在此，我们报道了北部湾斑节对虾（形态II）的完整线粒体基因组序列。该线粒体基因组有15,966个碱基对，总共由37个基因组成（13个蛋白质编码基因、22个转运RNA和2个核糖体RNA），以及一个假定的控制区。这两个隐存种之间有1029个突变位点，其中变异最大的位点是假定的控制区。本研究增加了斑节对虾（形态II）独特的线粒体基因组，并将为该经济价值虾类未来的遗传变异鉴定和遗传多样性评估提供有用的遗传信息。
