Ulva prolifera (U. prolifera), a green macroalgae, is widely known as the dominant species of the world's largest macroalgal blooms in the Yellow Sea, China. In this study, we sequenced and annotated the complete mitochondrial genome of U. prolifera (GenBank accession number: KU161104). The genome consists of circular chromosomes of 61 962 bp and encodes a total of 26 protein-coding genes include nine ribosomal protein genes, five atp genes, three cox genes, eight nad genes and cob gene. Phylogenetic analysis showed U. prolifera clustered into Ulvo phyceae clade and had close genetic relationship with algae Ulva fasciata.
