Abstract

<abstract> <title>Abstract</title> <p>The complete mitochondrial genome was sequenced from the freshwater fish, <italic>Pseudopungtungia nigra</italic>. The genome sequence was 16, 605 bp in size, and the gene order and contents were identical with the cyprinid fish without any peculiar features. Of 13 protein-coding genes (<italic>PGC</italic>s), 3 genes (<italic>CO2, CO3</italic> and <italic>Cytb</italic>) had an incomplete stop codon. The base composition of <italic>P. nigra</italic> showed anti-G bias (13.71% and 9.48%) on the second and third positions of <italic>PCG</italic>s.</p> </abstract>
