Cymbidium maguanense Snap Caps is a valuable orchid endemic to China, with delicate smelling, ivory white flower, and showy yellow labellum.Herein, we reported the complete chloroplast genome of C.maguanense.This chloroplast genome was 156,530 bp in length.It presented a typical structure including a large single-copy region (LSC, 85,112 bp), a small single-copy region (SSC, 17,874 bp), and two inverted repeat regions (IRs, 26,772 bp).

It contained 138 genes, 37 tRNA, and 8 rRNA with an average GC content of 36.8%.Besides, the phylogenetic analysis showed that C.maguanense displayed a closer kinship to C.eburneum in the section Eburnea under subgenus Cymbidium.

This chloroplast genome will provide a reference for future studies on species evolution, germplasm resources utilization, and Autres genetic engineering of genus Cymbidium.
