A Mitogenomic Phylogeny of Living Primates
Primates, the mammalian order including our own species, comprise 480 species in 78 genera. Thus, they represent the third largest of the 18 orders of eutherian mammals. Although recent phylogenetic studies on primates are increasingly built on molecular datasets, most of these studies have focused on taxonomic subgroups within the order.

Mitogenomics and the Phylogeny of Mantis Shrimps (Crustacea: Stomatopoda) [PDF]
Stomatopoda, commonly known as mantis shrimps, are notable for their enlarged second maxillipeds encompassing the raptorial claw. The form of the claw can be used to divide them into two basic groups: smashers and spearers. Previous phylogenetic studies of Stomatopoda have focused on morphology or a few genes, though there have been whole mitochondrial

A comprehensive mitogenome phylogeny of the avian tribe Arini (Arinae: Psittacidae) with emphasis in Pyrrhura species [PDF]
The tribe Arini is the most diverse group of Neotropical parrots, and it includes approximately 158 species distributed in at least 32 genera. These parrots have been largely affected by habitat loss, fragmentation, and the illegal wildlife trade market.

The mitogenome phylogeny of Adephaga (Coleoptera)
The beetle suborder Adephaga consists of several aquatic ('Hydradephaga') and terrestrial ('Geadephaga') families whose relationships remain poorly known. In particular, the position of Cicindelidae (tiger beetles) appears problematic, as recent studies have found them either within the Hydradephaga based on mitogenomes, or together with several ...

First Record of Osphya (Melandryidae: Osphyinae) from Chinese Mainland Based on Morphological Evidence and Mitochondrial Genome-Based Phylogeny of Tenebrionoidea [PDF]
Osphya Illiger (Melandryidae: Osphyinae) as a species-poor insect group, exhibits a widespread distribution in the Northern Hemisphere, however, the research of the genus is poorly documented especially in East Asia.

The mitogenomic phylogeny of the Elasmobranchii (Chondrichthyes)
Here we present a mitogenomic perspective on the evolution of sharks and rays, being a first glance on the complete mitochondrial history of such an old and diversified group of vertebrates. The Elasmobranchii is a diverse subclass of Chondrichthyes, or cartilaginous fish, with about 1200 species of ocean- and freshwater-dwelling fishes spread all over

Chedrinae fish, which belong to Danionidae, have important ornamental, economic, and scientific value. At present, however, their mitogenomic features are unclear and their phylogenetic relationships remain controversial. In this study, we presented five new Chedrinae mitochondrial genomes (mitogenomes) and analyzed the conserved and variable ...

The complete mitogenome of the Paranticopsis xenocles (Lepidoptera: Papilionidae: Papilioninae) and phylogenetic implications [PDF]
Paranticopsis xenocles Doubleday belongs to the Paranticopsis of Papilionidae and is mainly distributed in China mainland. Herein, we report the complete mitogenome of P. xenocles reconstructing from Illumina sequence data. The mitogenome is 15,187 bp in

Mitogenomic features of the citrus leafminer, Phyllocnistis citrella (Lepidoptera: Gracillariidae) and the related mitogenomic phylogeny [PDF]
The complete mitochondrial genome of the citrus leafminer, Phyllocnistis citrella (Lepidoptera: Gracillariidae) was sequenced for the first time, which was 15,416 bp in length and with an A + T content of 81.9%. The common set of 37 genes (13 PCGs, 22 tRNA genes, and two rRNA genes) were all annotated.
