[Display omitted] •We sequenced and characterized the complete mitogenome of Aromia bungii.•This study is the first report of the complete mitogenomes of Korean Aromia bugii in the family Cerambycidae in Chrysomeloidea.•The aim of study is to increase the genomic information of the Challichromatini group.•This mitogenome will be an important source for phylogenetic studies of Coleoptera. The red-necked longhorn beetle Aromia bungii (Coleoptera: Chrysomeloidea: Cerambycidae) is a wood-boring pest of Prunus spp. We analyzed two complete mitochondrial genomes of A. bungii collected in South Korea. The complete mitochondrial genomes were 15,759 bp and 15,760 bp long, including a typical set of genes (13 protein-coding, 22 transfer RNA, and two ribosomal RNA genes) and one non-coding region. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that the two mitochondrial genomes of A. bungie clustered with previously reported three mitochondrial genomes from China in one clade and was a sister group to Closteromerus belonging to the tribe Callichromatini.
