In this study, we sequenced and analyzed the mitochondrial genome of the Satanas beetle, Moser, 1909, which was intercepted by Chinese Customs during an attempted smuggling operation in 2022. The complete mitochondrial genome is 16,973 bp in length (GenBank accession number: OQ998898) and contains 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNAs, 2 rRNAs, and a control region of 2285 bp. The gene order of trnQ-trnI-trnM in the mitochondrial genome of is consistent with that of other species in the genus . All 13 PCGs are initiated by the ATN start codon. Seven genes terminate with the TAA stop codon, one with TAG, and five with a single T. The nucleotide composition of mitochondrial genome of was 38.07% of A, 31.49% of T, 20.52% of C, and 9.92% of G. Phylogenetic analysis indicates that and (Quensel, 1805) exhibit a considerable genetic distance, suggesting that they should be classified as two distinct subgenera.
在本研究中，我们对2022年中国海关在一次未遂走私行动中截获的1909年撒旦甲虫（Moser）的线粒体基因组进行了测序和分析。完整的线粒体基因组长度为16,973 bp（GenBank登录号：OQ998898），包含13个蛋白质编码基因、22个tRNA、2个rRNA和一个2285 bp的控制区。撒旦甲虫线粒体基因组中trnQ-trnI-trnM的基因顺序与该属其他物种一致。所有13个PCG均由ATN起始密码子启动。7个基因以TAA终止密码子终止，1个以TAG终止，5个以单个T终止。撒旦甲虫线粒体基因组的核苷酸组成为：A占38.07%，T占31.49%，C占20.52%，G占9.92%。系统发育分析表明，撒旦甲虫与1805年的Quensel表现出相当大的遗传距离，表明它们应被归类为两个不同的亚属。
