Abstract

The complete mitochondrial genome of the fine flounder Paralichthys adspersus, was determined for the first time through Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) approach. The mitogenome (GenBank accession no. MW288827) has 17,060 bp in length and consisted of the well-known 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes, two rRNA genes, and the control region. The overall nucleotide composition of the whole mitogenome was A: 27.5%, C: 29.5%, G: 17.1%, and T: 25.9%. Phylogenetic analyses based on 12 protein-coding genes clustered P. adspersus in the monophyletic Paralichthyidae clade, showing the closest phylogenetic relationship with its congeneric species P. olivaceus.
