The dance fly Trichoclinocera yixianensis Li et Yang belongs to the subfamily Clinocerinae of Empididae. The mitogenome of T. yixianensis was sequenced, the first representative of the mitogenome of the subfamily. The nearly complete mitogenome is 15,595 bp totally, consisting of 13 protein-coding genes, 2 rRNAs, and 22 transfer RNAs. All genes have the similar locations and strands with that of other published species of Empididae. The nucleotide composition biases toward A and T, which together made up 80.1% of the entirety. Bayesian inference analysis strongly supported the monophyly of Empididae and Dolichopodidae. It suggested that Empididae is the sister group to the clade of Dolichopodidae and Empidinae is the sister group to the clade of Clinocerinae þ Trichopezinae. ARTICLE HISTORY

“…The mitochondrial genome of Eristalis tenax contains all 37 genes, which include 22 transfer RNA genes, 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), two ribosomal RNA genes and non-coding control region, and were similar with related reports before (Kang et al 2014;Li et al 2016;Wang, Ding, et al 2016;, Wang, Liu, et al 2016Li et al 2017;Zhou et al 2017). Twenty-three genes of all genes were encoded by the majority strand (J-strand) and the other fourteen genes were encoded by the minority strand (N-strand).…”

The complete mitochondrial genome of Eristalis tenax (Linnaeus, 1758) (Diptera, Syrphidae) is reported here. This is the first sequenced mitogenome from the subfamily Milesiinae. The whole mitochondrial genome is 16,091 bp in length and contains 37 canonical genes, which include 22 transfer RNA genes, 13 protein-coding genes and two ribosomal RNA genes, the control region is 1125 bp in length. Most PCGs start with standard ATN codons, while CO1 and ND1 use TTG, CO3 uses TGG as start codons. All PCGs terminate in the common stop codons TAA. In addition, the nucleotide composition of the coding region was 40.0% of A, 40.1% of T, 11.2% of C, 8.7% of G and 80.1% of A þ T content. The phylogenetic tree shows that Syrphidae is the sister group of Pipunculidae. ARTICLE HISTORY

“…The nearly complete mitogenome of E. separata is 14,961 bp (GenBank accession number: MK993569). It encoded 13 PCGs, 22 tRNA genes, two rRNA genes, and the control region could not be sequenced entirely in this study and was similar with related reports before (Li et al 2016;Li et al 2017;Zhou et al 2017;Qilemoge et al 2018;Gao et al 2018). All genes have the similar locations and strands with that of other published Empididae species.…”

The dance fly Empis separata belongs to the subfamily Empidinae of Empididae. The mitogenome (GenBank accession number: MK993569) of E. separata was sequenced, the new representative of the mitogenome of the subfamily. The complete mitogenome is 14,961 bp totally, consisting of 13 proteincoding genes, two rRNAs, and 22 transfer RNAs. All genes have the similar locations and strands with that of other published species of Empididae. The nucleotide composition biases toward A and T, which together made up 76.3% of the entirety. Bayesian inference analysis strongly supported the monophyly of Empidoidea, Empididae, and Dolichopodidae. This result also suggested that Empidinae is the sister group to the clade of Trichopezinae.
