Here, we present the mitochondrial sequences of two sea slugs (Heterobranchia): Runcina aurata and Facelina auriculata, the latter being the type species of the family. The mitochondrial genomes are 14,282 and 14,171bp in length, respectively, with a complete set of 13 PCGs, 2 rRNAs, and 22 tRNAs. None of the mitogenomes show gene reorganization, keeping the standard mitogenomic structure of Heterobranchia. Nucleotide composition differs significantly between them, with R. aurata showing the most AT-rich mitogenome (25.7% GC content) reported to date in Heterobranchia, and F. auriculata showing a rich GC content (35%) compared with other heterobranch mitochondrial genomes.
