Substantial new DNA data were obtained by sequencing the mitochondrial genomes of four crustacean species, resulting in the discovery of a novel gene order in freshwater crayfish. Investigation of evolutionary relationships using mitochondrial genomes challenged established theories of crustacean evolution and diversification in relation to the other major Arthropod groups
