The complete mitochondrial genomes (mitogenomes) of beetles in the tribe Scolytoplatypodini (genus ) were sequenced and annotated. These included (15,324 bp), (15,394 bp), (15,167 bp), and (15,267 bp). The four mitogenomes contained 37 typical genes, including 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 transfer RNA genes (tRNAs), and 2 ribosomal RNA genes (rRNAs).

Here, the first eight mitochondrial genomes of species, which were used to construct the first molecular phylogenies of this genus, are reported. The lengths of the eight mitogenomes range from 17,189 bp to 20,363 bp.

A complete mitogenome of is reported, and a mitogenome-based phylogenetic tree of Elateriformia with all protein-coding genes (PCGs), rRNAs, and tRNAs is presented for the first time. The complete mitochondrial genome of is 16,429 bp in size and contains 13 PCGs, two rRNA genes, 22 tRNA genes, and an A + T-rich region. The A + T content of the entire genome is approximately 71.

In the field, dominant species are often identified by their high importance values. Selective foraging on dominant species is a common phenomenon in ecology.

is a citrus pest that distributes in South China. Currently, there was no complete mitochondrial genome of species available in GenBank. Here, we reported the complete circular mitogenome of It had a total length of 16,756 bp, including 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 tRNA genes, two rRNA genes, and one A + T-rich region.

The complete circular mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of was 17,965 bp in length, which contained 2 ribosomal RNA genes, 22 transfer RNAs, 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs) and 1 non-coding AT-rich region with the length of 3002 bp. All of the 22 tRNA genes displayed a typical clover-leaf structure, with the exception of tRNA (TCT). 12 PCGs were initiated by ATN codons, except for ND1 started with TTG.
