The complete mitochondrial genome of <i>Butis koilomatodon</i> (Bleeker, 1849) (Gobiiformes: Butidae) and its phylogenetic analysis
<i>Butis koilomatodon</i> (Bleeker, 1849) is common in China, belongs to the family Butidae within the order Gobiiformes. The complete mitochondrial genome of <i>B. koilomatodon</i> was sequenced and characterized for the first time. The circular genome is 16,521 bp in length, comprising 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, two ribosomal RNA genes and one control region. The phylogenetic reconstruction based on the mitochondrial genome sequences revealed <i>B. koilomatodon</i> as sister to <i>Butis melanostigma</i>. This study could be beneficial for systematic studies on family Butidae.
