The complete mitochondrial genome of the entomophthoroid fungus (strain no.: ATCC 12588) was sequenced using next-generation sequencing technology. The assembled circular genome has a length of 46,756 base pairs with a GC content of 27.06%. Gene prediction identified 15 core protein-coding genes (PCGs), two rRNA genes, and 27 tRNA genes. Phylogenetic analysis confirmed that belongs to the Zoopagomycota clade and is closely related to . This study presents the second complete mitochondrial genome within the family Capillidiaceae, contributing to the mitochondrial DNA database of entomophthoroid fungi.
