# The genome sequence of a cased caddisfly, Mystacides longicornis (Linnaeus, 1758)

## TL;DR

This paper presents the genome sequence of the cased caddisfly Mystacides longicornis, including a detailed assembly of its chromosomes and mitochondrial DNA.

## Contribution

The study provides a high-quality genome assembly and mitochondrial genome for Mystacides longicornis, a species in the order Trichoptera.

## Key findings

- The genome assembly spans 665.1 megabases and is scaffolded into 20 chromosomal pseudomolecules.
- The mitochondrial genome is 15.75 kilobases in length and has been fully assembled.

## Abstract

We present a genome assembly from an individual male
Mystacides longicornis (cased caddisfly; Arthropoda; Insecta; Trichoptera; Leptoceridae). The genome sequence is 665.1 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 15.75 kilobases in length.
