title: The complete mitochondrial genome of Wanieso lizardfish Saurida wanieso Shindo & Yamada, 1972 (Aulopiformes: Synodontidae).
abstract: The complete mitochondrial genome of the Wanieso lizardfish (Saurida wanieso) was determined by using a PCR-based method. The total length of mitochondrial DNA is 16,552 base pairs including 13 protein-coding genes, 2 ribosomal RNA, 22 transfer RNA genes, 1 replication origin region and 1 control region as other Saurida spp. and bony fish. Base composition of the genome is A (25.7%), T (25.2%), C (31.5%), and G (17.6%) with an A + T-rich hallmark as that of other vertebrate mitochondrial genomes.
