ResumoIn this study, we first sequenced and described the complete mitochondrial genome and phylogeny of Dicrurus hottentottus. The whole genome of D. hottentottus was 16,963 bp in length, and contained 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, 2 ribosome RNA genes, and 1 non-coding control regions. The overall base composition of the mitochondrial DNA was 32.56% for A, 25.56% for T, 27.72% for C, and 14.15% for G, with a GC content of 41.87%. A phylogenetic tree strongly supported that D. hottentottus (Dicruridae) is closely related to Corvidae and Laniidae with a high probability.
