The complete mitochondrial genome of Pseudobagrus vachelli has been sequenced. The mitochondrial genome is 16 529 bp in length, with the base composition of 31.61% A, 26.88% T, 26.55% C, and 14.96% G, containing 2 ribosomal RNA genes, 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNA genes and a major non-coding control region (D-loop region). The gene order and orientation are similar with some typical fish species. The data will provide useful molecular information for phylogenetic studies concerning P. vachelli and its related species.
