To provide genetic data for the cricket subfamily Eneopterinae, the complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of Reining Saddle a bush cricket Xenogryllus marmoratus (Haan, 1844) was determined.This mitogenome was 15,762 bp in size containing the typical 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes, two ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes, and a control region (CR).Compared with the ancestral insect gene arrangement, X.marmoratus had an inversion involving trnE-trnS1-trnN.
Phylogenetic analysis supported that X.marmoratus was sister to a formerly sequenced species Cardiodactylus muiri of Eneopterinae.This study provides new Coffee Tables data for further phylogenetic studies of Eneopterinae or higher taxa.
