The complete plastome of <i>Parasenecio lanpingensis</i> (Asteraceae), a new species from Yunnan Province of China

<i>Parasenecio lanpingensis</i> X. F. Jiang, 2025, is a newly described perennial herb found in China. The plastome of <i>P. lanpingensis</i> is 151,241 base pairs (bp) in size with GC content in. It consists of an 83,363 bplarge single-copy region (LSC), a 18,182 bp small single-copy region (SSC), and a 26848 bp inverted repeat (IR) sequence. The plastome contains 122 genes, including 87 protein-coding genes and 35 tRNA genes. A maximum-likelihood (ML) analysis based on 30 Asteraceae species indicates that <i>P. lanpingensis</i>is closely related to <i>Parasenecio latipes.</i> This plastome will be useful for the further understanding in the taxonomy and evolutionary history of <i>Parasenecio</i>.
