The complete mitochondrial genome of the critically endangered Lesser Antillean iguana (Iguana delicatissima; Squamata: Iguanidae)

The Lesser Antillean iguana, Iguana delicatissima Laurenti 1768, is one of the most endangered vertebrate taxa in the West Indies. This species faces significant threats, including introgressive hybridization with the introduced congener Iguana iguana. We deploy a combination of off-target sequence...

This species faces significant threats, including introgressive hybridization with the introduced congener Iguana iguana.
