The genus Ogcogaster Westwood, 1847, which is endemic to the Oriental Region and contains only five species, has been recorded in India and Pakistan, but not in China. The genus was not sampled in any previous study on the phylogeny of Neuroptera and its affinity within Ascalaphinae is unclear.The owlfly species Ogcogaster segmentator (Westwood, 1847) is firstly recorded from China, based on a female specimen collected from Yunnan Province, which represents the first record of the genus Ogcogaster from China. The complete mitochondrial genome of this species is first sequenced and described. The phylogenetic analysis, based on all 13 PCGs and two rRNA genes of the owlfly mitogenomes determined so far, assigned O. segmentator into a monophyletic group with Libelloides macaronius (Scopoli, 1763) and Ascalohybris subjacens (Walker, 1853).Taxonomic Coverages
