  abstract = {{T}he {L}eopard whipray ({H}imantura leoparda) and {B}lue-spotted stingray ({N}eotrygon kuhlii) are distributed in the {I}ndian and {W}est {P}acific {O}cean and considered as complex species based on morphological and molecular evidences. {I}n this study, we used the next-generation sequencing method to decode two complete mitogenomes of {H}. leoparda and {N}. kuhlii. {T}he assembled mitogenome, consisting lengths of 17,690 bp for {H}. leoparda and 17,974 bp for {N}. kuhlii, shows 78% identity to each other. {B}oth mitogenomes follow the typical vertebrate arrangement, including 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer {RNA}s, 2 ribosomal {RNA}s genes and a non-coding control region of {D}-loop. {D}-loop with the lengths 1931 bp ({H}. leoparda) and 2243 bp ({N}. kuhlii) is located between t{RNA}-{P}ro and t{RNA}-{P}he. {T}he overall {GC} content is 40.3% for {H}. leoparda and 39.8% for {N}. kuhlii. {T}he complete mitogenome of {H}. leoparda and {N}. kuhlii provides essential and important {DNA} molecular data for further phylogenetic and evolutionary analyses for stingray species complex.},
