# The genome sequence of the ichneumonid wasp, Sussaba pulchella (Holmgren, 1858) (Hymenoptera: Ichneumonidae)

## TL;DR

This paper presents the genome sequence of the ichneumonid wasp Sussaba pulchella, providing a detailed reference for this species as part of a larger biodiversity project.

## Contribution

The paper provides a high-quality genome assembly for Sussaba pulchella, including a scaffolded chromosomal assembly and mitochondrial genome.

## Key findings

- The genome assembly is 299.91 megabases long, with 81.88% scaffolded into 15 chromosomal pseudomolecules.
- The mitochondrial genome is 34.69 kilobases in length and has been fully assembled.
- The work is part of the Darwin Tree of Life project, which aims to sequence eukaryotic species in Britain and Ireland.

## Abstract

We present a genome assembly from an individual male
Sussaba pulchella (ichneumonid wasp; Arthropoda; Insecta; Hymenoptera; Ichneumonidae). The genome sequence has a total length of 299.91 megabases. Most of the assembly (81.88%) is scaffolded into 15 chromosomal pseudomolecules. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled, with a length of 34.69 kilobases. This assembly was generated as part of the Darwin Tree of Life project, which produces reference genomes for eukaryotic species found in Britain and Ireland.
