The Siberian Rubythroat (
Calliope calliope
), a shy and cautious passerine bird, is widely distributed throughout Siberia, Asia, and Europe. In this study, the complete mitogenome of the Siberian Rubythroat samples collected in Heilongjiang, China, was sequenced. The whole length of the complete mitochondrial genome is 16,840 bp, consisting of 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes, two rRNA genes, and one control region. Only one overlapping gene was found among the 13 protein-coding genes (ND4L/ND4). The length of the control region is 1068 bp. The nucleotide composition is 29.32% A, 23.05% T, 14.80% G, and 32.82% C. Phylogenetic analysis indicated a close genetic relationship between
C. calliope
and
Luscinia cynaura
