Complete Mitochondrial Genome of Euseius nicholsi (Ehara et Lee) (Acari:Phytoseiidae)

In this study, the complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) sequence of Euseius nicholsi (Acarinae: Phytoseiidae) was determined by long PCR and primer walking methods. The complete mitochondrial genome is 15,561 bp in length and contains 13 protein-coding genes, 2 ribosomal RNA genes, 21 transfer RNA genes. The overall base composition of the genome is A (34.69%), T (43.14%), C (8.06%) and G (14.10%). Stop codon was missed for the COXIII gene in E. nicholsi. The mitogenome would contribute to resolving phylogenetic position and interrelationships of Euseius.
