## Abstract

This study aimed to characterize the chloroplast genome of Eurya nitida Korthals. The complete chloroplast genome of Eurya nitida was sequenced and assembled using high-throughput sequencing technology. The genome spans 157,191 bp and exhibits a typical quadripartite structure, comprising a large single-copy region (LSC, 87,231 bp), a small single-copy region (SSC, 18,215 bp), and two inverted repeat regions (IRs, 51,744 bp each). Phylogenetic analysis revealed a close relationship between E. nitida and Eurya hebeclados Ling. This study elucidates the structural features and phylogenetic position of the E. nitida chloroplast genome.
