The mitochondrial genome of Colossendeis megalonyx supports a basal position of Colossendeidae within the Pycnogonida
We present the almost complete (16,007 bp) mitochondrial genome of a Colossendeis megalonyx specimen from the Southern Ocean and discuss gene order and tRNA structure in a comparative phylogenetic context. Our data suggest a basal position of the colossendeid lineage corroborating earlier phylogenet...
