The genus Morphostenophanes is a small arboreal group of darkling beetles endemic to the Oriental region. The complete mitochondrial genome of the M. sinicus population from Manwan Town was characterized for the first time, consisting of 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes, and 2 rRNA genes with a total length of 15,662 bp.
The genus Morphostenophanes is a small arboreal group of darkling beetles that are endemic to the Oriental region. The complete mitochondrial genome of the M. sinicus population from the Manwan Town was first characterized. The mitogenome consisted of a circular DNA molecule of 15,662 bp with a 66.352% AT content. It comprises 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 tRNA genes, and two rRNA genes. The PCGs have a typical ATN (Met) start codon, except for nad1 (TTG as a start codon), and are terminated by typical TAN stop codons.
