This study was the first report about complete chloroplast genome of Aster hypoleucus (Asteraceae, Astereae), an endemic species in Xizang (China). The circular whole cp genome of A. hypoleucus was 152,300 bp in length, contained a large single-copy (LSC) region of 84,031 bp and a small single-copy (SSC) region of 18,269 bp. These two regions were separated by a pair of inverted repeat regions (IRa and IRb), each of them 25,000 bp in length. A total of 134 functional genes were encoded, consisted of 89 protein-coding genes, 37 tRNA genes, and eight rRNA genes. The overall GC content of the chloroplast genome sequence was 37.3%, and the GC contents of the LSC, SSC, and IR regions were 35.2%, 31.2%, and 43.0%, respectively.
