title: First complete mitochondrial genome from the brown lacewings (Neuroptera: Hemerobiidae).
abstract: The first complete mitochondrial genome of the family Hemerobiidae (Neuronema laminatum Tjeder, 1936) is sequenced in this study. The complete mitochondrial genome is a typical double-stranded circular molecule of 17,164 bp (GenBank accession number: KR078257) containing 37 typical animal mitochondrial gene and an A + T-rich region. The gene order is identical to that of the putative ancestral arrangement of insects and other lacewings. Thirteen protein-coding genes (PCGs) possessed common triplet initiation codons ATN and mostly terminate with TAN codons except for ND5 with a single T residue adjacent to a downstream tRNA gene. All the 22 tRNAs, ranging from 63 to 72 bp, can be folded into classic clover-leaf secondary structure except for tRNA(Ser(AGN)), in which the dihydrouridine (DHU) arm did not form a stable stem-loop structure. The control region is 2131 bp long with an A + T content of 87.4%. In the sampled families of Neuroptera, Osmylidae + the remaining families, Hemerobiidae + Mantispidae, Polystoechotidae + Rapismatidae, are recovered in phylogenetic analyses with high supports.
