Chimonobambusa hejiangensis is a kind of bamboo that has excellent edible and economic value, which is endemic to southwest China. The study used next-generation sequencing to obtain the complete chloroplast (cp) genome sequence of C. hejiangensis. The cp genome of C. hejiangensis has a total length of 138,908 bp, and consisted of an 82,495-bp large single-copy region, an 12,743-bp small single-copy region, and two 21,835-bp IR regions. In total, 112 unique genes were found in the cp genome, including 77 protein coding, 31 tRNA, and 4 rRNA genes. Phylogenetic analysis indicated that C.hejiangensis and C. tumidissinoda are sister species within the Arundinarieae genus, where Chimonocalamus and Ampelocalamus are more closely related to them.
