Abstract
Here, we report the complete mitochondrial genome sequence of Metrioptera bonneti and its phylogenetic status. The complete mitogenome of M. bonneti is 16,273 bp in size and consisted of 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes, two rRNA genes, and one D-loop. The overall nucleotide composition of the mitogenome was 35% A, 20.4% C, 11.7% G, and 32.9% T, with an A + T bias of 67.9%. Using the 13 PCGs and two rRNA of M. bonneti, together with 39 Tettigoniidae and two outgroup species, we constructed a phylogenetic tree based on the Bayesian inference method. The tree showed that M. bonneti forms a sister clade with Metrioptera ussuriana and supported the monophyly of Tettigoniinae.
