We describe the mitochondrial genome of the <i>Menticirrhus littoralis</i> and infer the phylogenetic position of <i>Menticirrhus</i> in the family Sciaenidae. The genome contains 16,499 base pairs distributed in gene regions (13 protein-coding regions, 2 rRNAs and 22 tRNAs) and a control region (CR). Our phylogenetic analysis suggests, with strong statistical support, that <i>Menticirrhus</i> is a sister group of the other sciaenids. ...[more]
