# The genome sequence of the Titania’s Fritillary, Boloria titania (Esper, 1793) (Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae)

## TL;DR

This paper presents the genome sequence of the Titania’s Fritillary butterfly, including detailed assemblies of its chromosomes and mitochondrial DNA.

## Contribution

The study provides a high-quality genome assembly with scaffolded chromosomal pseudomolecules and a complete mitochondrial genome for Boloria titania.

## Key findings

- The genome assembly includes two haplotypes totaling 496.64 and 454.08 megabases.
- Haplotype 1 is scaffolded into 32 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including sex chromosomes W and Z.
- The mitochondrial genome is assembled with a length of 15.17 kilobases.

## Abstract

We present a genome assembly from a female specimen of
Boloria titania (Titania’s Fritillary; Arthropoda; Insecta; Lepidoptera; Nymphalidae). The assembly contains two haplotypes with total lengths of 496.64 megabases and 454.08 megabases. Most of haplotype 1 (97.13%) 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 15.17 kilobases.
