Eria corneri is a perennial epiphytic orchid distributed in southeastern China with high value of ornamental and medicinal. In this study, the complete chloroplast genome sequence of E. corneri was determined from Illumina pair-end sequencing data. The complete chloroplast genome sequence of E. corneri is 150,538 base pairs (bp) in length, including one large single-copy region (LSC, 85,941 bp), one small single-copy region (SSC, 13,099 bp), and a pair of inverted repeat regions (IRs) of 25,749 bp. Besides, the complete chloroplast genome contains 132 genes, including 77 protein-coding genes, 38 tRNA genes, and 8 rRNA genes. Phylogenetic analysis showed that E. corneri was most closely related to Calanthe triplicata and Calanthe davidii. Our study provides a foundation for the identification and genotyping of Eria species.
