title: The complete mitochondrial genome of flat spider Selenops bursarius (Araneae: Selenopidae).
abstract: The complete mitochondrial genome of Selenops bursarius is a circular molecule of 14,272 bp in length, containing 13 protein-coding genes, 2 ribosomal RNAs, 22 transfer RNAs and a control region. The A + T content of the overall base composition of H-strand is 74.4% (T: 41.8%; C: 8.7%; A: 32.6%; G: 16.9%). COI gene begins with TTA as start codon; COII gene begins with GTG as start codon; ATP6 and ATP8 genes begin with ATA as start codon; COIII and ND4 genes begin with TTG as start codon; ND1 and ND5 genes begin with ATC as start codon, while other five protein-coding genes start with ATT. ATP6, ATP8, COII, COIII, ND2, ND3, ND4 and ND5 genes are terminated with TAA as stop codon, ND1 ends with TAG, COI ends with TG, Cyt b, ND4L and ND6 end with T.
