Abstract
The Gypsy moth, Lymantria dispar (Linnaeus, 1758) (Lepidoptera: Erebidae) is a serious pest that attacks forest as well as fruit trees. We sequenced the 15,548 bp long complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of this species. It consists of a typical set of genes (13 protein-coding genes, 2 rRNA genes, and 22 tRNA genes) and one major non-coding A + T-rich region. The orientation and gene order of the L. dispar mitogenome are identical to that of the ancestral type found in majority of the insects. Phylogenetic analyses using concatenated sequences of 13 PCGs and 2 rRNAs (13,568 bp including gaps) revealed that the L. dispar examined in our study, together with other geographical samples of L. dispar in a group forming the family Erebidae and consistently supported the monophyly of each family (Erebidae, Euteliidae, Noctuidae, Nolidae and Notodontidae), generally with the highest nodal supports.
