Abstract
The genus Acanthorhodeus chankaensis belongs to the family Cyprindea, subfamily Acheilognathinae. The complete mitochondrial genome of A. chankaensis is 16,774 bp in length with 57.65% AT content, including 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes, 2 rRNA genes, and 1 control region. The mitogenome sequence of Acanthorhodeus chankaensis would play an important role in population structure and conservation genetic studies.
