The First Eight Mitogenomes of Leaf-Mining <i>Dactylispa</i> Beetles (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae: Cassidinae) Shed New Light on Subgenus Relationships

The taxonomic classification of <i>Dactylispa</i>, a large genus of leaf-mining beetles, is problematic because it is currently based on morphology alone. Here, the first eight mitochondrial genomes of <i>Dactylispa</i> species, which were used to construct the first molecula...

All of the mitochondrial genomes include 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 transfer RNA genes (tRNAs), 2 ribosomal RNA genes (rRNAs), and 1 A + T-rich region.
