Abstract: We reported the mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of bronze-winged jacana ( Metopidius indicus , Latham 1790). The circular mitogenome was 17,208 base pairs (bp) in length, containing 13 protein-coding genes, two rRNAs, 22 tRNAs, and a non-coding control region. A DNA spacer 109 bp long was also detected between ND5 and Cytb . Phylogenetic analysis indicated that M. indicus was more closely related with the genera Himantopus , Jacana and Hydrophasianus . This annotated mitogenome reference can be utilized as a data resource for comparative mitogenomics of waders or shorebirds, with possible use in ecological and evolutionary studies.<br />Competing Interests: The authors report no conflicts of interest and are entirely responsible for the contents of this article.<br /> (© 2021 The Author(s).
