The complete mitochondrial genome of Goniurosaurus varius (Squamata: Eublepharidae)

Figures & data

Figure 1. Species reference images of Goniurosaurus varius (Qi 2020). the stored tail tip tissue (voucher no. ZY-23042301) was taken from the specimen in this picture (Figure 2).

Figure 2. Mitochondrial genome map of G. varius. Arrows are the transcribed direction of genes. GC and at contents across the mitochondrial genome are shown with dark and light shading, respectively, inside the inner circle.

Figure 3. Maximum likelihood (ML)-based phylogenetic relationships of nine Eublepharidae species based on 13 PCGs.
