The complete mitochondrial genome of the pentastomid Armillifer grandis (Pentastomida) from the Democratic Republic of Congo.


ABSTRACT: We present the first complete mitochondrial genome of the pentastomid Armillifer grandis (Arthropoda: Pentastomida) collected from the lungs of a rhinoceros viper (Bitis nasicornis) in the Democratic Republic of Congo. The full length mitochondrial genome of Armillifer grandis, which measures 16,073?bp in length, contains 13 protein-coding genes, 2 ribosomal RNA genes, and 22 transfer RNA genes. A clear A?+?T bias is observed in the mitogenome of Armillifer grandis with an overall base composition of 34.6% A, 29.4% T, 29% C, and 6.9% G, and a GC content of 35.9%. The gene arrangement is identical to that of previously described pentastomid mitogenomes.
