## TL;DR

This paper presents the genome sequence of the Four-dotted Obscure moth, including a detailed assembly of its chromosomes and mitochondrial DNA.

## Contribution

The study provides the first genome assembly for Oegoconia quadripuncta, including scaffolded chromosomal pseudomolecules and the mitochondrial genome.

## Key findings

- The genome assembly spans 622.6 megabases and is scaffolded into 20 chromosomal pseudomolecules.
- The mitochondrial genome is 15.39 kilobases in length and has been fully assembled.
- The Z sex chromosome is included in the chromosomal scaffolding.

## Abstract

We present a genome assembly from an individual male
Oegoconia quadripuncta (the Four-dotted Obscure; Arthropoda; Insecta; Lepidoptera; Autostichidae). The genome sequence is 622.6 megabases in span. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 20 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the Z sex chromosome. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled and is 15.39 kilobases in length.
