The complete mitochondrial genome of Parasitus fimetorum (Berlese, 1904) (Arachnida: Parasitiformes: Parasitidae)

For the first time, the complete mitochondrial genome of Parasitus fimetorum was sequenced. The mitochondrial genome is 14,619 bp in length and includes 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, two ribosomal RNA genes, and a control region. The base composition is 35.6% for A, 34.8% for T, 18.2% for G, and 11.4% for C. A phylogenetic tree based on the maximum likelihood (ML) method indicated that Parasitus fimetorum was clustered with Parasitus wangdunqingi within the family Parasitidae.
