## TL;DR

This paper presents the genome sequence of the Oak Nycteoline moth, including chromosomal scaffolding and gene annotation.

## Contribution

The study provides a high-quality genome assembly and gene annotation for the Oak Nycteoline moth.

## Key findings

- Gene annotation identified 19,235 protein-coding genes using Ensembl.

## Abstract

We present a genome assembly from an individual male
Nycteola revayana (the Oak Nycteoline moth; Arthropoda; Insecta; Lepidoptera; Nolidae). The genome sequence is 621.0 megabases in span. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 26 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the Z sex chromosome. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled and is 15.25 kilobases in length. Gene annotation of this assembly on Ensembl identified 19,235 protein-coding genes.

## Linked entities

- **Species:** Nycteola revayana (taxon 988004)

## Full-text entities

- **Species:** Nycteola revayana (species) [taxon 988004]
