The complete mitochondrial genome of Spondylis buprestoides (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae)

Spondylis buprestoides is a major boring pest of Cerambycidae, which mainly damaging conifers and also can carry pine wood nematode, Bursaphelenchus xylophilus. In this study, the complete mitochondrial genome of S. buprestoides was determined by Illumina sequencing technology. The whole mitogenome was 15,837 bp in length with 20.05% GC content, which contains 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 transfer RNA genes (tRNAs), and 2 ribosomal RNA genes (rRNAs). Phylogenetic analysis showed that S. buprestoides was closely related to Lepturinae. The sequence data of S. buprestoides could provide useful genetic information for the studies on phylogenetic and evolutionary of Cerambycidae.
