# The genome sequence of the Peppered Grey, Eudonia truncicolella (Stainton, 1849)

## TL;DR

This paper presents the genome sequence of the Peppered Grey moth, including a detailed assembly of its chromosomes and mitochondrial DNA.

## Contribution

The novel contribution is the first genome assembly of Eudonia truncicolella, including chromosomal pseudomolecules and the mitochondrial genome.

## Key findings

- The genome assembly spans 499.1 megabases and is scaffolded into 30 chromosomal pseudomolecules.
- The mitochondrial genome is 15.38 kilobases in length and has been fully assembled.

## Abstract

We present a genome assembly from an individual male
Eudonia truncicolella (the Peppered Grey; Arthropoda; Insecta; Lepidoptera; Crambidae). The genome sequence is 499.1 megabases in span. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 30 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the Z sex chromosome. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled and is 15.38 kilobases in length.
