Abstract

The striped scat Selenotoca multifasciata is an ornamental and commercial fish in Asia. In the present study, we sequenced and annotated the complete mitochondrial genome of Selenotoca multifasciata. Its total length is 16,646 bp, and the mitochondrial genome is composed of 13 protein-coding genes, 2 rRNA genes, 22 tRNA genes and a non-coding control region. ND6 and eight tRNA genes were encoded on the light strand, whereas the remaining genes located on the heavy strand (H-strand). All the 16 mitochondrial genomes of the suborder Acanthuroidei available in GenBank were employed for phylogenetic analysis, and the result showed a close relationship between Selenotoca multifasciata and Scatophagus argus. This mitochondrial information may benefit relative ecological and phylogenetic studies.
