Abstract

The complete mitochondrial DNA sequence of the scurrinid limpet Scurria scurra (Lesson 1830) is reported here. This mitogenome is 18,482 bp long and includes two rRNA genes, 13 protein-coding genes, and 24 tRNAs. The genus Scurria is a nascent model group for marine ecological studies. This mitogenome will help to gain a better understanding of the phylogenetic relationships within Patellogastropoda, the most primitive group of extant gastropods.
