We completed chloroplast genome of Douinia plicata (Lindb.) Konstant. & Vilnet., presenting morphological features including denticulate leaf margin, verrucose cuticle on base of leaves, and 80–100o keel angle with stem at the midleaf. It is 118,797 bp long (GC ratio is 33.9\%) and has four subregions:81,142 bp of large single copy (31.9\%) and 19,611 bp of small single copy (31.0\%) regions are separated by 9,017 bp of inverted repeat (46.3\%) regions including 130 genes (86 protein-coding genes, eight rRNAs, and 36 tRNAs). Phylogenetic trees show D. plicata is clustered with two Scapania species.
