## TL;DR

This paper presents the genome sequence of the Rose-flounced Tabby moth, including its chromosomal structure and gene annotations.

## Contribution

The study provides a high-quality genome assembly and gene annotation for Endotricha flammealis, including sex chromosomes and mitochondrial DNA.

## Key findings

- The genome assembly is 473.9 megabases long and scaffolded into 32 chromosomal pseudomolecules.
- The mitochondrial genome is 15.23 kilobases in length.
- Gene annotation identified 17,578 protein coding genes using Ensembl.

## Abstract

We present a genome assembly from an individual female
Endotricha flammealis (the Rose-flounced Tabby; Arthropoda; Insecta; Lepidoptera; Pyralidae). The genome sequence is 473.9 megabases in span. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 32 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the W and Z sex chromosomes. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled and is 15.23 kilobases in length. Gene annotation of this assembly on Ensembl identified 17,578 protein coding genes.
