The Thick-billed Flowerpecker (Dicaeum agile), a small member of the flowerpecker family, inhabits tropical Southern Asia, and is widely distributed from India east to Indonesia and Timor. In this study, next generation sequencing (NGS) was used to obtain a mitochondrial genome sequence for D. agile. The complete mitogenome was 16,809bp in length, with a GC content of 46.40%. The genome sequence contained thirteen protein-coding genes, one 12S RNA gene, one 16S RNA gene, and 22 tRNA genes. A phylogenetic tree constructed for the family confirmed that D. agile is closely related to another species of Dicaeum (Dicaeum eximium). The mitochondrial genome of the Thick-billed Flowerpecker will be useful for future phylogeographic studies of this species.
