The complete mitochondrial genome of the terrestrial snail Monacha cartusiana (OF Muller, 1774) (Gastropoda, Eupulmonata, Hygromiidae)

The mitochondrial genome of Monacha cartusiana is the first complete mitochondrial sequence described for the pulmonate snail genus Monacha and for the family Hygromiidae. The identified mitogenome has a length of 13,894 bp and encodes 13 proteins, 22 tRNAs, and two rRNAs. A phylogenetic analysis of available mitogenomes from representatives of helicoid families shows a sister group relationship of Hygromiidae and Geomitridae, which have been recently recognised as separate families.
