Project description:A complete mitochondrial genome sequence was determined for a member of the Caridina indistincta species complex known as C. indistincta 'sp. A'. The 15,461 bp sequence (GenBank: MH189850) was obtained via genome skimming, and contains 13 protein coding genes, 22 tRNA genes, 2 rRNA genes, and a 646 bp control region arranged in the pancrustacean ground pattern. Caridina indistincta sp. A is a freshwater macroinvertebrate important for ecosystem health monitoring in Australia and this reference will be a useful resource for metabarcoding and eDNA studies.
