Abstract

The oriental sucking barb, Garra orientalis, is a small to moderate-sized freshwater fish. In this study, the complete mitochondrial genome of G. oriental was successfully sequenced for the first time with total length of 17,288 bp. The genome structure consists of 13 protein-coding genes, 2 ribosomal RNA genes, 22 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes and a control region. Moreover, tandem repeat unit ranged from 259 to 260 bp (repeated 3–4 times) was identified in the control region among G. orientalis individuals.
