Morella salicifolia (Myricaceae) is a dioecious plant of medicinal value. This study sequenced the complete chloroplast genome sequence of Morella salicifolia, the second to be sequenced in Myricaceae. The genome is 159,010 bp in size, composed of two copies of inverted repeat (IR) regions (26,045bp each) separating a large single-copy (LSC) region (88,207bp) from the small single-copy (SSC) region (18,713bp). The genome has 112 genes (77 protein-coding, 4 rRNA, and 31 tRNA) and an overall GC content of 36.2%. Phylogenetic relationship clustered M. salicifolia with M. rubra and Myricaceae clustered with Juglandaceae.
