title: Complete mitogenomes of Armitage angelfish (Apolemichthys armitagei) and Griffisi angelfish (Apolemichthys griffisi) (Teleostei: Pomacanthidae).
abstract: In this study, we used the next-generation sequencing method to deduce complete mitogenomes of Armitage angelfish (Apolemichthys armitagei) and Griffisi angelfish (A. griffisi) for the first time. The assembled mitogenomes, consists 16,551 bp (A. armitagei) and 16,528 bp (A. griffisi) in length, shows 92% identity each other. Both mitogenomes follow the typical vertebrate arrangement, including 13 protein coding genes, 22 transfer RNAs, two ribosomal RNAs genes, and a non-coding control region of D-loop. D-loop contains a length of 828 bp in A. armitagei and 849 bp in A. griffisi and locates between tRNA-Pro and tRNA-Phe. Complete mitogenomes of Armitage angelfish and Griffisi angelfish deduced in this study provide essential and important DNA molecular data for further phylogenetic and evolutionary analysis for marine angelfish.
