Abstract
In this study, the complete mitogenome sequence of the Emperor angelfish, Pomacanthus imperator (Perciformes: Pomacanthidae) has been sequenced by the next-generation sequencing method. The assembled mitogenome consisting of 16,538 bp, including 13 protein coding genes, 22 transfer RNAs, and two ribosomal RNAs genes. The overall base composition of Emperor angelfish is 28.4% for A, 28.2% for C, 16.2% for G, 27.2% for T and show 82% identities to Bluestripe angelfish Chaetodontoplus septentrionalis. The complete mitogenome of the Emperor angelfish provides essential and important DNA molecular data for further phylogeography and evolutionary analysis for marine angelfish phylogeny.
