The complete mitochondrial genome of the <i>Rhacophorus chenfui</i> Liu, 1945 and its phylogenetic analyses

We described the complete mitogenome sequence of <i>Rhacophorus chenfui</i> in this research. The circular mitogenome of R. <i>chenfui</i> is total length with 20,520 bp, encoded 39 genes (24 tRNA genes, 13 protein-coding genes, 2 rRNA genes) and two D-loop regions. The base composition of the mitogenome is 33.46% A, 30.80% T, 23.05% C, and 12.69% G. All tRNAs have the typical clover-leaf structure except for tRNA^Ser1(AGN) which have a reduced DHU arm. The results showed that R. <i>chenfui</i> is closely related with R. <i>schlegelii</i>, R. <i>arboreus</i>, <i>Zhangixalus omeimontis</i> and <i>Z. dugritei</i>. This work enriches the library of Rhacophoridae mitoenomes and provides a valuable resource for understanding the evolutionary history of <i>Rhacophorus</i>.
