The leafroller moths Cydia glandicolana and Cydia kurokoi are economically important pests. Here, we report the first complete mitochondrial genomes (mitogenomes) of these two species,with length of 15,395 bp and 15,246 bp, respectively. Each mitogenome contains13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 tRNA genes, two rRNA genes, and a single A + T-rich (D-loop) region. Their GC contents are 20.4% and 21.1%, respectively. Phylogenetic analysis, based on currently available sampling, supports the monophyly of the genus Cydia and indicates it is sister to the genus Leguminivora. Our study provides valuable genomic resources for taxonomic identification, biomonitoring, phylogenomics, and studies of genome evolution.
