摘要

Tylototriton shanorum , an endemic species of Myanmar, is threatened by illegal capture and environmental destruction. Here, the complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of T. shanorum is described. The entire mitogenome sequence of T. shanorum is 17,096?bp long, containing 13 protein coding genes, two ribosomal RNA, 22 transfer RNA genes, one control region. In addition, two additional 3′ Cytb like sequences and two complete tRNA_(Thr)genes, one pseudo tRNA_(Thr), and three noncoding sequences (NC1, NC1′ and NC2) were situated between Cytb and tRNA_(Pro)genes. The new complete mitogenome sequence of T. shanorum will be useful for conservation genetics, evolutionary biology, phylogeography, as well as phylogenetic relationships studies of this threatened species.
