The deep-sea penaeoid shrimp Cerataspis monstrosa performs a vertical ontogenetic migration, with its early larval stages are typically found in surface waters, while adults inhabit the deep-sea. In this study, we present the complete mitogenome of C. monstrosa, which is 15,911 bp in length and comprises 13 protein-coding genes, 2 rRNA genes, 22 tRNA genes, and a control region. Phylogenetic analysis indicates that C. monstrosa has closest genetic relationship with Aristeus virilis and is clustered within the Aristeidae family. The mitogenome of C. monstrosa provides valuable molecular data for further research into the evolution of penaeoid shrimps.
