\"In this study, the complete mitochondrial DNA sequence of Parum colligata (Lepidoptera: Sphingidae: Smerinthinae) was sequenced firstly. The mitogenome is 15,288 bp in size, containing 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 transfer RNA genes (tRNAs), two ribosomal RNA genes (rRNAs), and an A+T-rich region. In the mitogenome, Ile, Leu2, and Phe are the most frequently used codon families, while codons GCG, TGC, GGC, CTG, AGG, and ACG are absent. The A+T-rich region is 358 bp in length including a motif \‘ATAGA\’, an 18 bp poly-T stretch, three copies of a 12 bp \‘TATATATATATA\’, and a short poly-A element. The nucleotides sequence of A+T-rich region is closer to Sphinginae than Macroglossinae. Phylogenetic analyses, based on the PCGs by using Maximum Likelihood (ML) and Bayesian Inference (BI) methods, generated consistent results that Smerinthinae was clustered together with Sphinginae to be the sister groups rather than Macroglossinae.\"

\"The bombycid moth, Triuncina daii Xing Wang \& Zolotuhin, 2015, plays an important role for analyzing the phylogenetic relationships of the family Bombycidae\  (Lepidoptera: Bombycoidea). Here we first describe the complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of T. daii, which includes thirteen protein-coding genes (PCGs), twenty-two transfer RNA genes, two ribosomal RNA genes and an A+T-rich region, and we find the mitogenome is 15,482 bp in length (GenBank no. KY091643). The genes order and orientation in the T. daii mitogenome are similar to other sequenced lepidopteran species. Except for cox1, all of the PCGs started with ATN. Twelve PCGs stopped at TAA except for cox1 which stops at a single T. Thirteen PCGs of available species are used to demonstrate the inner phylogenetic relationships of Bombycoidea. The bombycid species form a monophyletic clade with a bootstrap value of 100\% and a posterior probability of 1.00.\"
