The nearly complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of , a typical leaf mimic insect in Phasmatodea, was obtained in this study. This mitogenome is 17,222 bp in length and contains 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 transfer RNA genes (tRNAs), two ribosomal RNA genes (rRNAs) and almost complete control regions. All PCGs initiate with 'ATN' except for that uses 'TTG' as the start codon, and terminate with 'TAA' except for that uses a single 'T' residue as the stop codon. The phylogenetic analysis based on the concatenated sequences of 13 PCGs and two rRNAs shows that . is closer to than .
在本研究中获得了一种竹节虫目典型叶拟态昆虫的近乎完整的线粒体基因组（线粒体基因组）。该线粒体基因组长度为17222 bp，包含13个蛋白质编码基因（PCG）、22个转运RNA基因（tRNA）、两个核糖体RNA基因（rRNA）以及几乎完整的控制区。除了使用“TTG”作为起始密码子的 外，所有PCG均以“ATN”起始，除了使用单个“T”残基作为终止密码子的 外，均以“TAA”终止。基于13个PCG和两个rRNA的串联序列的系统发育分析表明， 比 更接近 。
