Abstract

Simple Summary Many species of Cerambycidae are important pests in the agriculture, forestry, and fruit industries, and which have research significance. The subfamily Lamiinae is the most taxonomically diverse subfamily of Cerambycidae, but relationships between the tribes of Lamiinae are still unresolved. In order to provide a new perspective on the phylogenetic relationships among the tribes of Lamiinae, the mitogenomes of two species representing two tribes, Agapanthia amurensis (Agapanthiini) and Moechotypa diphysis (Ceroplesini), were sequenced. We present annotated, complete mitogenomes of these two species, and the results of a comparative analysis of both mitogenomes. The two new mitogenomes were found to be highly conservative, as found in other Cerambycidae. We also reconstructed the phylogenetic trees using mitogenomes of 38 species/subspecies of Lamiinae. Overall, this study explores the phylogenetic position between some tribes based on mitogenomic data and provides a further basis for studying the evolution of Lamiinae. The subfamily Lamiinae is the most taxonomically diverse subfamily of Cerambycidae, but relationships between tribes of Lamiinae are still unresolved. In order to study the characteristics of the mitogenomes of Lamiinae and the tribal-level phylogenetic relationships, we sequenced the mitogenomes of two species representing two tribes, Agapanthia amurensis (Agapanthiini) and Moechotypa diphysis (Ceroplesini), with a total length of 15,512 bp and 15,493 bp, respectively. The gene arrangements of these two new mitogenomes were consistent with the inferred ancestral insect mitogenomes.
