Abstract
Podagricomela nigricollis is a citrus pest that distributes in South China. Currently, there was no complete mitochondrial genome of Podagricomela species available in GenBank. Here, we reported the complete circular mitogenome of P. nigricollis. It had a total length of 16,756 bp, including 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 tRNA genes, two rRNA genes, and one A + T-rich region. Among the 13 PCGs, only four (NAD5, NAD4, NAD4l, NAD1) located on the L-strand, whereas the other nine (NAD2, COX1, COX2, ATP8, ATP6, COX3, NAD3, NAD6, COB) located on the H-strand. Phylogenetic analysis using nucleotide sequences of the 13 PCGs indicated that P. nigricollis were clustered with six Galerucinae species, which was consistent with previous morphological classification.
