The mitochondrial genome of Calohilara tibetensis Ding, He, Lin, and Yang, 2020 (Diptera: Empididae).
The dance fly Calohilara tibetensis Ding, He, Lin and Yang, 2020 belongs to the subfamily Empidinae of Empididae. The mitochondrial genome of C. tibetensis was sequenced as the new representative of the subfamily Empidinae. The nearly complete mitogenome was 15,354 bp, consisting of 13 protein-coding genes, two rRNAs, and 22 tRNAs. All genes have the similar locations and strands with that of other published species of Empididae. The nucleotide composition biases toward A and T is 77.4% of the entirety. All PCGs start with ATN codons except COI and NAD1, and end with TAA or incomplete stop codon. Bayesian inference (BI) analysis strongly supported the monophyly of both Empididae and Dolichopodidae and the monophyly of subfamily Empidinae. It suggested that Calohilara is the sister group of Hilara.
