Pseudecheneis sulcata belongs to Sisoridae, Pseudecheneis, which is mainly distributed in India and Tibet of China, and is located in the Motuo and Chayu in the lower reaches of the Yarlung Zangbo River in Tibet. In the present study, we obtained the complete mitochondrial genome sequence of Pseudecheneis sulcata, which was 16,535 bp in length. This genome consisted of 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNAgenes, 2 rRNA genes and a non-coding control region. The protein-coding genes have three start codons (GTG, ATG, and CTA) and four stop codons, including three complete stop codons and one incomplete stop codon. To verify the accuracy and utility of newly determined mitogenome sequences by constructing a species phylogenetic relationship tree of species, we expect to use the full mitochondrial gene sequence to interpret related evolutionary events.
