title: Complete mitochondrial genome of the serotine bat (Eptesicus serotinus) in Korea.
abstract: Serotine bats of Eptesicus serotinus are uncommon species in South Korea due to habit loss and destruction. We describe the characteristics of complete mitochondrial genome and gene organization of E. serotinus in this article. The complete mitogenome of E. serotinus is 16,665 bp long with a total base composition of 32.8% A, 29.8% T, 23.5% C and 13.8% G. The mitogenome consists of 13 protein-coding genes (11,410 bp), 2 rRNA (12S and 16S RNA) genes (2524 bp), 22 tRNA genes (1504 bp) and 1 control region (1225 bp). The results will contribute to understand the genetic structure of Korean E. serotinus.
