The first complete mitochondrial genome of Siphonosoma from Siphonosoma cumanense (Sipuncula, Sipunculidae)

Siphonosoma cumanense is economic important species in the fishery of southeast China. However, the current classification and the phylogeny of genus Siphonosoma had not been verified yet. Here, we report the complete mitochondrial genome sequence of S. Siphonosoma. The mitogenome has 15,917 base pairs and made up of total of 38 genes (13 protein-coding, 23 transfer RNAs and 2 ribosomal RNAs), and a putative control region. This study was the first available complete mitogenomes of Siphonosoma and will provide useful genetic information for future phylogenetic and taxonomic classification of Sipuncula.
