The complete mitochondrial genome of a rarely reported porcelain crab, <i>Pisidia striata</i> (Anomura, Galatheoidea, Porcellanidae), from the Chinese waters
The species <i>Pisidia striata</i> is predominantly distributed along the southeastern coast of China and belongs to the shallow-water crab family Porcellanidae. The complete mitochondrial genome of <i>P. striata</i>, which spans 15,357 bp and contains 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNAs and 2 rRNAs, is presented in this study. The nucleotide composition reveals A (37.81%), T (35.48%), G (9.75%), and C (16.96%). Phylogenetic analysis demonstrates a close relationship between <i>P. striata</i> and <i>P. serratifrons</i> within the <i>Pisidia</i> clade with robust bootstrap support values. This mitochondrial genome will be a significant supplement for the genus <i>Pisidia</i> and whole mitogenome phylogenetic analysis provided insights into further evolutionary research of Porcellanidae.
