TL;DR
This paper presents the genome sequence of the Red-underwing Skipper butterfly, including detailed assemblies of its chromosomes and mitochondrial DNA.
Contribution
The study provides a high-quality genome assembly with two haplotypes and chromosomal pseudomolecules for Spialia sertorius.
Findings
The genome assembly includes two haplotypes with lengths of 364.57 and 323.91 megabases.
Haplotype 1 is scaffolded into 32 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including sex chromosomes W and Z.
The mitochondrial genome is assembled with a length of 15.34 kilobases.
Abstract
We present a genome assembly from a female specimen of Spialia sertorius (Red-underwing Skipper; Arthropoda; Insecta; Lepidoptera; Hesperiidae). The assembly contains two haplotypes with total lengths of 364.57 megabases and 323.91 megabases. Most of haplotype 1 (99.92%) is scaffolded into 32 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the W and Z sex chromosomes. Haplotype 2 was assembled to scaffold level. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled, with a length of 15.34 kilobases.
