Abstract
The complete mitochondrial genome of Sarcochellichthys lacustris was determined to be 16,683 bp long circular molecule with a typical gene arrangement of vertebrate mitochondrial DNA. The circular genome consists of 37 typical animal mitochondrial genes (13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, 2 ribosomal RNA genes) and 1 control region (D-loop).
