The 14,001 bp-long mitogenome contains 12 protein-coding genes (atp8 gene missing), two ribosomal RNAs, 22 transfer RNAs, and a 583 bp non-coding region. Phylogenetic analysis showed that H. contortus NZ_Hco_NP forms a monophyletic cluster with the remaining three Haemonchidae species, and further illustrates the high levels of diversity and gene flow among Trichostrongylidae.
