Abstract
The complete mitochondrial genome sequence of the Hyla annectans (Anura: Hylidae) was determined in this study. It is a circular molecule of 17,973 bp in length including 37 genes for 13 protein-coding genes, 2 ribosomal RNAs, 22 transfer RNAs and a control region, showing a typical neobatrachian-type arrangement. The A + T content of H-strand and the control region is 60.7% and 64.6%, respectively. The control region is 2554 bp in length and possesses distinct repeat regions at both 5′ and 3′ ends.
