The complete mitochondrial genome of Ripeacma umbellata Wang, 2009 (Lepidoptera: Autostichidae).

ABSTRACT: The mitogenome of Ripeacma umbellata Wang, 2009 was reported in this study. It was 15,486 bps long and strongly AT biased, consisting of 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 transfer RNAs (tRNAs), 2 ribosomal RNAs (rRNAs), and 1 non-coding control region (351 bp). Most PCGs used the conventional ATN start codon, except for cox1 and cox2. Four genes used single T residue as stop codon rather than the routinely used TAA or TAG. All tRNAs, except for TrnS1, could fold into the cloverleaf secondary structure. Bayesian inference phylogenetic tree built on 13 PCGs from R. umbellata and another 21 species in Gelechioidea demonstrated that genus Ripeacma was a member in Autostichidae, which was consistent with the latest phylogenetic study.
