In this study, the complete mitogenome of
Grapsus albolineatus
(Lamarck, 1818) (Crustacea: Grapsoidea) was sequenced. The mitogenome of
G. albolineatus
was a circular molecule with 15,578 bp length. Its nucleotide composition was 26.81% A, 16.37% G, 34.51% T, and 22.31% C. It comprised 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 transfer RNA (tRNA), and two ribosomal RNA (rRNA). All PCGs were initiated by ATN codons, except for the atp8 and nad1 genes. Ten PCGs used a common stop codon of TAA or TAG, and the other three ended with a truncated stop codon (a single stop nucleotide T). Phylogenetic analysis revealed that
G. albolineatus
was closely related to species from the genera
Pachygrapsus
and
Metopograpsus
.
