Tarsiger indicus (Vieillot, 1817), the White-browed Bush Robin, is a small passerine bird widely distributed in Asian countries. Here, we successfully sequenced its mitogenome using Illumina Novaseq 6000 platform (Illumina, San Diego, CA, USA) for PE 2 × 150 bp sequencing. Combined with other published mitogenomes, conducted first comprehensive comparative analysis of Muscicapidae birds and reconstructed phylogenetic relationships between related groups. The T. was 16,723 size, it possessed typical avian structure organization. Most PCGs were initiated strictly start codon ATG, while COX1 ND2 started GTG. RSCU statistics showed that CUA, CGA, GCC relatively high frequency mitogenome. cyanurus shared very similar mitogenomic features. All 13 mitogenomes had experienced purifying selection. Specifically, ATP8 highest rate evolution (0.13296), whereas lowest (0.01373). monophylies Muscicapidae, Turdidae, Paradoxornithidae strongly supported. clade ((Muscicapidae + Turdidae) Sturnidae) Passeriformes supported by both Bayesian Inference Maximum likelihood analyses. latest taxonomic status many complex histories also For example, Monticola gularis, indicus, allocated to Turdidae literature; our topologies clearly their membership Muscicapidae; Paradoxornis heudei, Suthora webbiana, S. nipalensis, fulvifrons formerly classified into Paradoxornithidae; Culicicapa ceylonensis originally as member results are consistent position Stenostiridae.

The superfamily Certhioidea currently comprises five families. Due to the rapid diversification, phylogeny of is still controversial. advent next generation sequencing provides a unique opportunity for mitogenome-wide study. Here, we first provided six new complete mitogenomes (Certhia americana, C. familiaris, Salpornis spilonota, Cantorchilus leucotis, Pheugopedius coraya, and genibarbis). We further paid attention genomic characteristics, codon usages, evolutionary rates, mitogenomes. All analyzed displayed typical ancestral avian gene order with 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 tRNAs, 2 rRNAs, one control region (CR). Our study indicated strand-biased compositional asymmetry might shape usage preferences in mitochondrial genes. In addition, natural selection be main factor shaping usages Additionally, rate analyses all were under purifying selection. Moreover, MT-ATP8 MT-CO1 most rapidly evolving conserved genes, respectively. According our mitophylogenetic analyses, monophylies Troglodytidae Sittidae strongly supported. Importantly, suggest that should separated from Certhiidae put into Salpornithidae maintain monophyly Certhiidae. findings are useful studies within Certhioidea.
