The complete mitochondrial (mt) genome of Monolepta occifuvis Gressitt & Kimoto (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae: Galerucinae) was sequenced with poise pads in bulk 15,998 bp long.The sequenced genome has the standard metazoan complement of 37 genes and an A + T-rich region which is consistent with insect ancestral genome arrangement.All protein-coding synovex one grass genes (PCGs) initiate with ATN except that nad1 initiates with TTG.The control region occupied 1,407 bp with two conserved blocks.
The phylogenetic results support Alticinae as a separate subfamily and being the sister group to Galerucinae while the monophyly of Galerucinae was not recovered.
