Abstract
The complete mitochondrial genome of a centipede Bothropolys sp. (Chilopoda, Lithobiomorpha, Lithonidae) is reported here. The mitogenome of Bothropolys sp. is 15,139 bp in total and includes 13 protein-coding genes, 2 ribosomal RNA genes, 22 transfer RNA genes and a putative noncoding region (a possible control region). The pattern of gene order is similar to the arthropod ground pattern, except for the location of trnC.
