Sumario:Lepisosteus platyrhincus is a member of the family Lepisosteidae living in the Western Hemisphere. It is a primitive air-breathing fish with the special intermediate position of phylogeny and between elasmobranchs and teleosts. Herein, we first sequenced and assembled the complete mitochondrial genome of Lepisosteus platyrhincus. The total length of mitochondrion is 16 320 bp with GC content of 42.43%, containing 13 protein-coding genes, two ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes, 22 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes and a 564 bp control region. The accuracy of the fresh sequences was verified by phylogenetic analysis. This mitochondrial genome provides potentially important resources for addressing taxonomic issues and studying molecular evolution.
