Deskripsi
The black-bellied hornet (Vespa basalis) is one of the most dangerous social wasps. In this study, the complete mitogenome sequence of V. basalis (Hymenoptera, Vespidae) has been sequenced (GenBank accession number MK440075). The mitogenome, 16,735 bp, includes 13 protein-coding, 22 transfer RNAs, two ribosomal RNAs genes, and a noncoding D-loop region. The D-loop of 807 bp length is located between rRNA-S and tRNATyr. The overall base composition of V. basalis is 41.82% for A, 12.09% for C, 40.53% for T, and 5.57% for G, with a high AT bias of 82.35%. The present data could contribute to detailed phylogeographic analysis of this dangerous wasp.
