Abstract
Serotine bats of Eptesicus serotinus are uncommon species in South Korea due to habit loss and destruction. We describe the characteristics of complete mitochondrial genome and gene organization of E. serotinus in this article. The complete mitogenome of E. serotinus is 16,665bp long with a total base composition of 32.8% A, 29.8% T, 23.5% C and 13.8% G. The mitogenome consists of 13 protein-coding genes (11,410bp), 2 rRNA (12S and 16S RNA) genes (2524bp), 22 tRNA genes (1504bp) and 1 control region (1225bp). The results will contribute to understand the genetic structure of Korean E. serotinus.
