In this study, the complete mitochondrial genome of Antheraea pernyi strain Yu6 (Lepidoptera: Saturniidae) has been reported for the first time. It is a circular molecule of 15,569 bp in length, containing 37 typical coding genes and 1 non-coding AT-rich region. The overall composition of the mitogenome is A (39.27%), G (7.71%), C (12.01%), and T (41.01%). Its gene order and content are identical to the common type found in most insect mitogenomes. All protein coding genes (PCGs) start with a typical ATN initiation codon, except for the cox1 gene, which begins with TTAG codon. Nine genes used standard complete termination codon TAA, whereas the cox1, cox2, nad3, and nad5 genes end with single T. All tRNAs display typical secondary cloverleaf structures as those of other insects. Additionally, the 552 bp long AT-rich region contained several structures common to the other lepidopterons, such as some structures of repeated motifs and microsatellite-like elements. Phylogenetic analysis showed that the Antheraea pernyi Yu6 was close to Saturniidae.
