Abstract
We have determined the complete mitochondrial genome of a species of grouse locust, Tetrix japonica. The total length of the T. japonica mitogenome is 15,128 bp with 75.57% A+T content. It consists of 13 protein-coding, 22 transfer RNA (tRNA), and 2 ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes, and an A+T-rich region. The A+T-rich region was located between the small rRNA and tRNA-Ile genes and is 531 bp in length.
