Abstract

The complete mitochondrial genome (KM507783) of the green crab spider Oxytate striatipes was determined. The mitochondrial genome of O. striatipes was 14,407 bp long with a total base composition of 35.80% A, 42.40% T, 8.60% C, and 13.20% G. Total length of 13 protein-coding genes was 10,801 bp and 9 of them were encoded on heavy strand. COX1 started with TTA, uncommon start codon in invertebrate mitogenomes. The total length of 22 tRNA genes was 1202 bp, varying from 46 bp (tRNAThr) to 67 bp (tRNATrp and tRNAGln). The standard cloverleaf secondary structure was found in 8 tRNA genes and TV-replacement loop was not found in the other 14 tRNA genes.
