A 16,359 bp mitochondrial genome of Laodelphax striatellus collected in a southern part of Korean peninsula was completed and their intraspecies variations were compared with Korean and Chinese L. striatellus mitogenomes. The circular mitogenome of L. striatellus contains 13 protein-coding genes, two rRNA genes, 22 tRNAs, and a single large non-coding region of 1,972 bp. The base composition was AT-biased (77.3\%). It has only one single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in AT-rich region compared to other Korean mitogenome, but total 41 and 141 SNPs and 118 and 166 insertions and deletions, respectively, compared to two Chinese mitogenomes, suggesting the possibility of tracing migration based on geographic genetic diversity.
