## TL;DR

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

## Contribution

The study provides a high-quality genome assembly for Scoparia ambigualis, including chromosomal pseudomolecules and the mitochondrial genome.

## Key findings

- The genome assembly is 1,040.83 megabases long, with 99.56% scaffolded into 28 chromosomal pseudomolecules.
- The mitochondrial genome is 15.33 kilobases in length and has been fully assembled.

## Abstract

We present a genome assembly from a male specimen of
Scoparia ambigualis (Common Grey; Arthropoda; Insecta; Lepidoptera; Crambidae). The genome sequence has a total length of 1,040.83 megabases. Most of the assembly (99.56%) is scaffolded into 28 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the Z sex chromosome. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled, with a length of 15.33 kilobases.
