title: Complete mitochondrial genome of the freshwater gudgeon, Pseudopungtungia tenuicorpa (Cypriniformes, Gobioninae).
abstract: The complete mitochondrial genome was sequenced from the freshwater fish, Pseudopungtungia tenuicorpa. The genome sequence was 16,590 bp in size, and the gene order and contents were identical with P. nigra in the same genus Pseudopungtungia without any peculiar features. Of 13 protein-coding genes (PGCs), 3 genes (CO2, CO3 and Cytb) had incomplete stop codon as shown in P. nigra. The base composition of P. tenuicorpa showed anti-G bias (13.94% and 12.73%) on the second and third positions of PCGs, indicating that P. tenuicorpa showed slightly lower anti-G bias than P. nigra (13.71% and 9.48%).
