Abstract

In this study, we report the complete mitochondrial genome of the Opisthotropis guangxiensis, which is 17,042 bp in size and includes 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 tRNA genes, 2 rRNA genes, and 2 non-coding regions. The sequence presented would be useful for better understanding the phylogenetic and evolutionary of genus Opisthotropis.
