Pedicularis flava Pall. is perennial herb and is distributed in China (Inner Mongolia), Mongolia and Russia (Zabaikalye Territory-Chita city, Republic of Tyva). In Mongolia, this species is quite widely distributed across several phytogeographical regions. In this study, we assembled and annotated the complete plastid genome of P. flava using the high-through sequencing for the first time. The plastome of P. flava was identified as a double-stranded circular DNA molecule 149 087 bp long with 38.4% GC content. The plastome consists of a large single-copy (LSC) region (83 576 bp) and a small single-copy (SSC) region (14 169 bp) and separated by two inverted repeats (IRs) of 25 671 bp each. The plastome encodes 113 unique genes which is similar to other Pedicularis species. This includes 4 rRNA, 30 tRNA, and 79 protein-coding genes, among which 4 rRNA, 7 tRNA, and 7 protein-coding genes were duplicated in the IR regions. Finally, phylogenetic analysis shows that Pedicularis species were formed a monophyletic clade and P. flava was clustered with P. resupinata.
