# The genome sequence of the Blood-vein moth, Timandra comae Schmidt, 1931

## TL;DR

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

## Contribution

The study provides the first genome assembly for the Blood-vein moth, including chromosomal pseudomolecules and the mitochondrial genome.

## Key findings

- The genome assembly spans 334.4 megabases and is scaffolded into 31 chromosomal pseudomolecules.
- The mitochondrial genome is 15.91 kilobases in length and has been fully assembled.

## Abstract

We present a genome assembly from an individual male
Timandra comae (the Blood-vein; Arthropoda; Insecta; Lepidoptera; Geometridae). The genome sequence is 334.4 megabases in span. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 31 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the Z sex chromosome. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled and is 15.91 kilobases in length.
