Abstract

Abstract: In this study complete nucleotide sequences of the mitochondrial genome of fiddler crab Uca arcuata (De Haan, 1835) were determined and characterized. The length of mitochondrial genome for U. arcuata is 15, 955 bp. This is the third and the longest record of complete mitochondrial genome from the family Ocypodidae. Furthermore, phylogenetic relationships were evaluated due to mitochondrial protein-coding genes. Phylogenetic tree suggests that U. arcuata belongs to the monophyletic family Ocypodidae and has sister group relationship with the genus Ocypode .
