<i>Armillifer agkistrodontis</i> (Ichthyostraca: Pantastomida) is a parasitic pathogen, only reported in China, which can cause a zoonotic disease, pentastomiasis. A complete mitochondrial (mt) genome was 16,521 bp comprising 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 tRNA genes, 2 rRNA genes, and 1 non-coding region (NCR). A phylogenetic tree drawn with the concatenated amino acid sequences of the 6 conserved PCGs (<i>atp6, cox1-3</i>, and <i>nad2</i>) showed that <i>A. agkistrodontis</i> and <i>Armill ...[more]
