# The genome sequence of the Thicket Knot-horn, Acrobasis suavella (Zincken, 1818)

## TL;DR

This paper presents the genome sequence of the Thicket Knot-horn moth, including chromosomal scaffolding and gene annotations.

## Contribution

The study provides a high-quality genome assembly and annotation for Acrobasis suavella, including chromosomal pseudomolecules and mitochondrial DNA.

## Key findings

- The genome assembly spans 647.3 megabases and includes 30 chromosomal pseudomolecules.
- The mitochondrial genome is 15.31 kilobases long and fully assembled.
- Gene annotation identified 19,101 protein-coding genes using Ensembl.

## Abstract

We present a genome assembly from an individual male
Acrobasis suavella (the Thicket Knot-horn; Arthropoda; Insecta; Lepidoptera; Pyralidae). The genome sequence is 647.3 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 15.31 kilobases in length. Gene annotation of this assembly on Ensembl identified 19,101 protein coding genes.
