In this study, we first determined the complete mitochondrial genome of the endangered marine strombid gastropod Strombus luhuanus, an important shellfish traditionally distributed around Hainan island of China and parts of Papua New Guinea. The complete mitogenome sequence was 15,799 bp in length containing 13 protein-coding genes, two rRNA genes, 22 tRNA genes, and one non-coding control region (D-loop). We further compared the mtDNA sequences of S. luhuanus and S. gigas, and calculated the moderate sequence variations in their protein coding regions, which would further provide valuable genome variation information for conservative studies of S. luhuanus.
