Cletus punctiger is a famous economic crop pest in China, especially for rice. Here, we first reported the complete mitochondrial genome sequence of this pest. The mitochondrial genome is 16,166 bp in length, including 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 tRNA genes, 2 rRNA genes, and 1 control region (D-Loop). The maximum likelihood (ML) phylogenetic tree confirmed that C. punctiger belonged to the Coreidae subfamily.
