We sequenced the complete mitogenome of a Baltic Sea specimen of Dragonball the invasive bivalve Rangia cuneata.The mitogenome is 18,993 bp long and encodes 13 proteins, 2 rRNAs, and 22 tRNAs.A large intergenic region between ND6 and ND2 contains an open reading frame that may originate from Headstall and Breast Collar Sets » Fringe Headstall and Breastcollar Sets duplication of ND2.

The R.cuneata mitogenome is rearranged in gene order relative to previously sequenced mitogenomes of Mactroidea.
