- Partial mitochondrial genome of the enigmatic Bermuda fireworm Odontosyllis enopla Verrill, 1900 (Annelida, Syllidae, Eusyllinae) and its phylogenetic implications.

Despite the first sighting of more than 534 years ago, molecular data have been limited. Several syllid mitogenomes are currently available; however, there are only three published genes for : two partial mitochondrial genes (16S [508 bp] and [653 bp]; 1,161 bp total) and one partial nuclear gene (18S [1,339 bp]). This study bioinformatically mined previously published transcriptomes of for mitochondrial reads and subsequently assembled and annotated a partial mitochondrial genome (10,172 bp). The partial mitogenome includes nine (of 13) protein-coding genes, two ribosomal RNAs, and seven (of 22) complete tRNAs. We place the Bermuda fireworm in phylogenetic context using all available syllid mitogenomes, analyze intraspecific variation among three female partial mitogenomes, and propose a putative location for the mitochondrial origin of replication using a DNA Walker analysis.
