The samurai wasp Trissolcus japonicus is a parasitoid hymenopteran known as the natural enemy of Halyomorpha halys. The complete sequence of its mitochondrial genome conforms to the typical model of animal mitochondrial genomes, with gene order being identical to its congeneric Trissolcus basalis. Phylogenetic analysis confirms its placement within the Scelionidae and Telenominae groups, as the sister group of T. basalis.
The samurai wasp Trissolcus japonicus (Ashmead, 1904) is a parasitoid hymenopteran that came into the limelight as the natural enemy of Halyomorpha halys. Here, we present the complete sequence of the mitochondrial genome of the CREATJ laboratory strain, naturally recovered in Italy in 2018. The molecule conforms to the typical model of animal mitochondrial genomes. Gene order is identical to that of its congeneric Trissolcus basalis. Phylogenetic analysis confirms its placement within monophyletic Scelionidae and Telenominae as the sister group of T. basalis.
