The lycanid butterfly, Shijimiaeoides divina (Lepidoptera: Lycaenidae) is listed as the second-degree endangered wild animal in Korea from 2012. The 15,259-bp long complete mitochondrial genome of the species consisted of a typical set of genes (13 protein-coding genes, two rRNA genes and 22 tRNA genes) and one major non-coding A+T-rich region, with the typical arrangement found in majority of Lepidoptera. The 15,259-bp long S. divina mitogenome is well within the range found in Lycaenidae and has typical sets of 37 genes and a major non-coding A+T-rich region as 379 bp. As other lycanid butterflies S. divina COI also started with CGA. The gene arrangement of S. divina is identical to that of the Ditrysia in Lepidoptera that has the order trnM-trnI-trnQ (underline for inverted gene) between the A+T-rich region and ND2. Comparison of the skewness between the PCGs encoded in major and minor strand indicates a substantial difference between them in GC skewness (0.261 ~ 0.340 in minor strand vs. -0.081 ~ -0.115 in major strand). The 151-bp intergenic spacer sequence of the S. divina mitogenome is spread over 16 regions ranging in size from 1-53 bp. The longest one (53 bp) located between trnQ and ND2 shows substantially high sequence homology to neighboring ND2 may indicating the origination of the region by a partial duplication of the ND2 gene. One of the unusual features of the S. divina mitogenome is the presence of a trnK-like sequence that is encoded at the major strand of the genome in the A+T-rich region.
