# The genome sequence of the satellite, Eupsilia transversa (Hufnagel, 1766)

## TL;DR

This paper provides the complete genome sequence of the satellite moth, including its chromosomes and mitochondrial DNA.

## Contribution

The study presents a fully scaffolded genome assembly and gene annotation for Eupsilia transversa.

## Key findings

- The genome assembly is 467 megabases long and fully scaffolded into 32 chromosomal pseudomolecules.
- The complete mitochondrial genome is 15.5 kilobases in length.
- Gene annotation identified 18,065 protein coding genes.

## Abstract

We present a genome assembly from an individual female
Eupsilia transversa (the satellite; Arthropoda; Insecta; Lepidoptera; Noctuidae). The genome sequence is 467 megabases in span. The entire assembly (100%) is scaffolded into 32 chromosomal pseudomolecules with the W and Z sex chromosomes assembled. The complete mitochondrial genome was also assembled and is 15.5 kilobases in length. Gene annotation of this assembly on Ensembl has identified 18,065 protein coding genes.
