title: Complete mitochondrial genome of Rhinogobius giurinus (Perciformes: Gobiidae: Gobionellinae).
abstract: In this study, we present the complete mitochondrial gene for the freshwater goby Rhinogobius giurinus. The genome is a circular molecule of 16,520 bp in length and consists of 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes, 2 ribosomal RNA genes and 2 main non-coding regions (the control region and the origin of the light strand replication). The overall base composition of R. giurinus is 26.08% for T, 29.56% for C, 27.73% for A and 16.63% for G, with a slight A + T bias of 53.81%. It has the typical vertebrate mitochondrial gene arrangement.
