Resumen

In this study, we report the complete mitochondrial genome or mitogenome of the blister beetleHycleus scutellatus, one endemic species from the Iberian Peninsula. The mitogenome was 16,035 basepairs in length, with an A þ T content of 71.7%. It has 37 genes including 13 protein-coding genes, 22transfer RNA genes and 2 ribosomal RNA genes. To analyze the evolutionary position of H. scutellatus,we constructed a phylogenetic tree using all available mitogenomes from species of the familyMeloidae. The results show that Hycleus species are very close to the genus Mylabris. We present herethe mitogenome of H. scutellatus as a new resource to elucidate the phylogenetic relations among theMeloidea family, being this source very useful for future evolutionary analyses of blister beetles.
