Complete mitochondrial genome of fire-tailed myzornis (Myzornis pyrrhoura) and white-browed fulvetta (Fulvetta vinipectus).

In this study, the complete mitochondrial genomes of Myzornis pyrrhoura and Fulvetta vinipectus were sequenced and described for the first time. The whole mitochondrial genomes of M. pyrrhoura and F. vinipectus are 17,397 bp and 16,961 bp in length, with the G + C percentage 46.34% and 47.36%, respectively. Both genomes contain 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, 2 ribosome RNA genes, and 1 non-coding control region. The arrangement of genes is identical to mitochondrial genomes of Sylviidae species reported previously. A phylogenetic reconstruction supported that M. pyrrhoura and F. vinipectus are members of family Sylviidae. The mitochondrial genomes of these two species reported here would be helpful in better understanding the phylogeny and evolution of Sylviidae.
