Abstract
In this study, the complete mitochondrial genome sequence of Anneissia pinguis was examined by next-generation sequencing analysis. The complete mitogenome of A. pinguis has 15,912 bp in length and 37 genomes consist of 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 tRNAs, 2 rRNAs, and 1 control region (D-loop). Both gene orders and characteristics were in accordance with other species belonging to the phylum Echinodermata. Phylogenetic analysis revealed the establishment of molecular taxonomic relationship in class Crinoidea based on complete mitogenome.
