Complete mitochondrial genome of the webbed-toed gecko Gekko subpalmatus (Squamata: Gekkonidae)

Here, we report the first complete mitochondrial genome of Gekko subpalmatus. The genome of Gekko subpalmatus is 17,105 bp in length and consists of 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, 2 ribosomal RNA genes, and 1 control region. The phylogenetic tree reveals that G. subpalmatus is a sister group to G. hokouensis and shows (((((G. subpalmatus, G. hokouensis), G. swinhonis), G. japonicus), G. chinensis), G. gecko) with strong support. This study provides more molecular data for G. subpalmatus and lays the foundation for future protection.
