Abstract
We presents the first complete mitochondrial genome of Pyrocoelia amplissima (Olivier, 1886) (Coleoptera: Lampyridae: Pyrocoelia), a Chinese endemic firefly. The 17,426 bp circular genome contains 13 PCGs, 23 tRNAs, 2 rRNAs, and a control region with a notable A + T bias (76.91%). Phylogenetic analysis of 12 firefly species using 13 PCGs places P. amplissima basally within its genus. This complete mitochondrial genome provides valuable genetic information for further research on Lampyridae.
