## TL;DR

This paper provides the genome sequence of the Notch-wing Button moth, including chromosomal scaffolding and gene annotations.

## Contribution

The novel contribution is the first genome assembly of Acleris emargana, including chromosomal pseudomolecules and mitochondrial DNA.

## Key findings

- The genome assembly spans 691.4 megabases with 30 chromosomal pseudomolecules.
- Gene annotation identified 21,886 protein-coding genes using Ensembl.
- The mitochondrial genome is 16.34 kilobases in length.

## Abstract

We present a genome assembly from an individual male
Acleris emargana (the Notch-wing Button; Arthropoda; Insecta; Lepidoptera; Tortricidae). The genome sequence is 691.4 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 16.34 kilobases in length. Gene annotation of this assembly on Ensembl identified 21,886 protein coding genes.
