Himalayan Musk Deer (Moschus leucogaster) is a species of genus Moschus of the family Moschidae. The species is listed as an Endangered (EN) species by the IUCN red list of threatened animals. And it also has been listed as EN by the red list of China's vertebrates. We provide a complete mitogenome of M. leucogaster and examine its phylogenetic position with other seven Artiodactyla species. The complete mitogenome is a circular molecule of 16,431bp in length, containing 13 protein-coding genes, two ribosome RNA genes, 22 transfer RNA genes and one non-coding regions. Using Bayesian phylogenetic methods, we constructed a phylogenetic tree and demonstrated M. leucogaster was a sister relationship to M. chrysogaster. This report provides basic data to conservation genetics and evolution for this EN species.
