## TL;DR

This paper reports the genome sequence of the Grey Sedge caddis fly, including a detailed assembly of its chromosomes and mitochondrial DNA.

## Contribution

The novel contribution is the first genome assembly for Odontocerum albicorne, including scaffolded chromosomal pseudomolecules and the mitochondrial genome.

## Key findings

- The genome assembly spans 1,287.3 megabases and is scaffolded into 31 chromosomal pseudomolecules.
- The mitochondrial genome is 16.57 kilobases in length and has been fully assembled.

## Abstract

We present a genome assembly from an individual male
Odontocerum albicorne (the Grey Sedge caddis fly; Arthropoda; Insecta; Trichoptera; Odontoceridae). The genome sequence is 1,287.3 megabases in span. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 31 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the Z sex chromosome. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled and is 16.57 kilobases in length.
