Resumo

The complete mitochondrial (mt) genome of the chocolate hind Cephalopholis boenak was obtained in this study, which is the first complete mitogenome in the genus Cephalopholis. The circular mtDNA molecule was 16 771 bp in size and the overall nucleotide composition of the H-strand was 29.58% A, 27.36% T, 15.84% G, and 27.22% C, with an A + T bias. The complete mitogenome encoded 13 protein-coding genes, 2 rRNAs, 22 tRNAs and 1 control region (D-loop), with the gene arrangement and translation direction basically identical to other typical vertebrate mitogenomes. The control region located between the tRNA Pro and tRNA Phe genes and the length was 1 064 bp, rich in A + T (70.11%); it was composed of 13 complete continuity tandem repeat units, 5′-TACATATCTATGTACTTAA-3′, and one imperfect tandem repeat.
