Abstract

Cophecheilus bamen is a freshwater cyprinid fish that endemic to Jingxi and Tiandong county, Southwestern China. In this study, we first determined the complete mitochondrial genome sequence of C. bamen. The circular mitogenome was 16,588 bp in length and consisted of 13 protein-coding genes, two ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes, 22 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes, and one non-coding control region. Phylogenetic analysis using mitochondrial genomes of 16 species showed that C. bamen is supported as a single monophyletic clade and sister to the Parasinilabeo, Pseudogyrinocheilus, Semilabeo, Discogobio, Pseudocrossocheilus (synonymy: Sincrossocheilus), and Ptychidio genus.
