Abstract

Alburnus istanbulensis (Thracian shemaya) is an endemic fish species to the northwestern region of Turkey. Alburnus istanbulensis has a remarkably limited geographic distribution, and no genetic data have been available on this species until now. The mitogenome (16,612bp) had the typical mitochondrial characteristics of other Leuciscinae fishes. This mitogenome sequence can help to further resolve phylogenetic relationships among Cyprinidae.
