Abstract
In this study, the complete mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) sequence of Schizothorax wangchiachii has been determined. The mitogenome is 16,593 bp in length. It consists of 13 protein-coding genes, 2 rRNA genes, 22 tRNA genes, and 2 non-coding regions: origin of light-strand replication (OL) and control region (D-loop). The complete mtDNA sequence of S. wangchiachii can contribute to elucidate the evolutionary mechanisms and biogeography of Schizothorax and is useful to stock evaluation and conservation genetics for S. wangchiachii.
