The complete mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) of Telmatogeton sp. (Diptera: Chironomidae: Telmatogetoninae) was sequenced using Illumina platform. The total length was 15652 bp which is one of the shortest mtDNA among chironomids. Circular mitochondrial genome keeps basic 13 protein-coding, 22 tRNA, 2 rRNA genes and control region which were annotated for Telmatogeton sp. and deposed in GenBank. Raw reads were unevenly distributed along the mitochondrial DNA, decreasing significantly around the control region. A phylogeny revealed new position of Telmatogetoninae on the chironomids tree as sister to Chironominae + Orthocladiinae but support for this node was low. The origin of Telmatogeton sp. in the inland Caspian Sea basin may results of natural habitat in Ponto-Caspian basins or invasion from the Black Sea in 20th century.
