Meller's mongoose () is a member of the family Herpestidae (Mammalia: Carnivora) and the sole species in the genus . It is primarily found in savannas and open woodlands of eastern sub-Saharan Africa. Here, we report the first complete mitochondrial genome for a female Meller's mongoose collected in Tanzania, generated using a genome-skimming approach. The mitogenome had a final length of 16,644 bp and a total of 37 annotated genes. Phylogenetic analysis validated the placement of this species in the herpestid subfamily Herpestinae. Ultimately, the outcomes of this research offer a genetic foundation for future studies of Meller's mongoose.
梅氏獴（）是獴科（哺乳纲：食肉目）的成员，也是该属的唯一物种。它主要分布在撒哈拉以南非洲东部的稀树草原和开阔林地。在此，我们报告了通过基因组浅层测序方法生成的、在坦桑尼亚采集的一只雌性梅氏獴的首个完整线粒体基因组。该线粒体基因组最终长度为16,644 bp，共有37个注释基因。系统发育分析验证了该物种在獴亚科中的位置。最终，本研究结果为梅氏獴的未来研究提供了遗传基础。
