Abstract
Neocaridina heteropoda koreana Kubo, 1938 is a freshwater shrimp native to the Korean peninsula. We have determined the mitogenome of N. heteropoda koreana, which's length is 15,558 bp long including 13 protein-coding genes, 2 ribosomal RNA genes, 22 transfer RNAs, and a single large non-coding region of 674 bp. Its GC ratio is 33.0%. Gene order of N. heteropoda koreana is identical to those of other known Atyidae species. Phylogenetic trees show that N. heteropoda koreana is sister to N. davidi and placed within genus Caridina. Our mitogenome will be a useful resource for understanding molecular phylogeny of genus Neocradina.
