    The complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of Sinopodisma hengshanica (Orthoptera: Acrididae) was firstly determined and analyzed in the present study. Assembled mitogenome sequence of S. hengshanica is 15,623 bp in size, containing 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), two ribosomal RNA genes (rRNAs), 22 transfer RNA genes (tRNAs), as well as one A + T-rich region. Its gene component and arrangement are identical with other Acrididae species. The overall nucleotide composition is as follows: A (42.89%), G (10.34%), T (33.07%), and C (13.70%). All PCGs are initiated by typical ATN codons, and terminated with harboring complete stop codons TAA and TAG. Furthermore, phylogenetic trees were reconstructed based on 13 PCGs to validate the taxonomic status of S. hengshanica, exhibiting a close relationship with Sinopodisma rostellocerca.
