# The genome sequence of the Grey Arches moth, Polia nebulosa Hufnagel, 1766

## TL;DR

This paper presents the genome sequence of the Grey Arches moth, including a detailed assembly of its chromosomes and mitochondrial DNA.

## Contribution

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

## Key findings

- The genome assembly is 1,011.20 megabases long, with 99.27% scaffolded into 30 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 specimen of
Polia nebulosa (Grey Arches; Arthropoda; Insecta; Lepidoptera; Noctuidae). The genome sequence has a total length of 1,011.20 megabases. Most of the primary assembly (99.27%) is scaffolded into 30 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the Z sex chromosome. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled and is 15.39 kilobases in length.
