The complete mitochondrial genome of (Perciformes, Gobiidae).

In this study, we sequenced the full mitochondrial genome of , an abundant intertidal fish species, which may provide insights into the evolutionary genetics of chaotic genetic patchiness and range expansion in marine systems. The mitochondrial genome is 16,692 bp, and contains 13 protein-coding genes along with 22 tRNA and 2 rRNA genes and a D-loop region, arranged similarly to other Gobiidae species. A Bayesian phylogeny of Gobiidae species indicates close relationships to the genus . The mitochondrial genome is now available through GenBank (Accession = MG704838).
