Sumario:Leucomeris decora is a traditional medicinal plant that is listed as an endangered species in China. Recently, L. decora has become locally rare. Here the complete chloroplast genome of L. decora was assembled and reported for the first time. Its plastome was 151,491 bp in length, including a large single-copy region (LSC; 83,155 bp), a small single-copy region (SSC; 18,216 bp), and a pair of inverted repeated regions (IRa and IRb; 25,060 bp). The overall GC content was 37.8%, and the genome contains 134 genes, including 92 protein-coding genes, 8 rRNA genes, and 34 tRNA genes. Phylogenetic analysis of thirteen representative species from the family of Asteraceae showed that L. decora is clustered into one clade with Gerbera jamesonii with high bootstrap values, indicating a close relationship between these two species.
