    Abstract:
    Telmatobius chusmisensis is an endemic frog of northern Chile that is only known at its type locality, Chusmisa. In this study, the complete mitochondrial genome of Telmatobius chusmisensis was assembled using high-throughput sequencing data, yielding a circular genome of 19 312 bp with a nucleotide composition of A = 30.8%, C = 24.4%, G = 13.6% and T = 31.2%. Its gene composition and structure were similar to other anuran genomes available: 13 protein-coding genes, two rRNA genes, 22 tRNA genes and the D-loop region. Phylogenetic analysis using Bayesian inference (BI) and maximum likelihood (ML) showed that Telmatobius chusmisensis, T. bolivianus and T. vellardi are a highly supported monophyletic group. This genome information will allow us to gain a better understanding into phylogenetic and phylogeographic relationships in the genus Telmatobius.
