Deskripsi
Dibranchus japonicus is a benthic fish living in the deep Pacific Ocean. Here, we described the complete mitochondrial genome of this species, with the sequences about 17,233 bp in length, containing 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 tRNAs, and two rRNAs. The gene arrangement of this species was identical with others from family Ogcocephalidae. The content of GC and AT for D. japonicus was 45.41% and 54.59%, respectively. Phylogenetic analysis, based on 13 PCGs and two rRNA genes, revealed the close relationship between D. japonicus and other species of Ogcocephalidae, which was consistent with the morphology.
