Abstract

Abstract: The true crabs (Brachyura) including Calappidea are one of the most diverse groups of Decapod crustaceans However, despite their great diversity and commercial importance, phylogenetic and classification relationships within Calappidea are still complicated and controversial. In this study, we report the first complete mitochondrial genome of Matuta victos . The mitogenome has 17, 782 base pairs (70.1% A + T content) and is made up of a total of 37 genes (13 protein-coding, 22 transfer RNAs and two ribosomal RNAs), plus a putative control region. This study will provide useful molecular resources for clarifying evolutionary and phylogenetic confusion within Calappidea.
