The complete chloroplast genome of Saussurella borneensis (Orthoptera: Tetrigoidea) from China and its phylogenetic analysis

The mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of Saussurella borneensis (Orthoptera: Tetrigoidea) was determined and analyzed. The complete mitochondrial genome is 16,006 bp in length, consisting of 37 genes, including 13 protein-coding (PCGs), 22 tRNA, 2 rRNA genes as well as an A + T-rich region. Ten PCGs initiated with a typical ATN codon (one with ATC, two with ATA, two with ATT, and five with ATG) and 13 terminated with complete stop codons. The overall nucleotide composition was 42.97% for A, 17.61% for C, 11.62% for G, and 27.8% for T. Phylogenetic analysis of S. borneensis fully resolved it in a basal branch sister to Tripetaloceroides tonkinensis. This data increase the bioinformatics of the Tetrigidae, and improves our understanding of the phylogenetic status of S. borneensis in the Tetrigoidea.
