## TL;DR

This paper provides a detailed genome sequence of the Tenthredid wasp Eutomostethus luteiventris as part of a broader project to map species genomes in Britain and Ireland.

## Contribution

The novel contribution is the first haploid genome assembly of Eutomostethus luteiventris, including a detailed mitochondrial genome.

## Key findings

- The genome assembly is 272.06 megabases long with 99.22% scaffolded into 6 chromosomal pseudomolecules.
- The mitochondrial genome is 30.01 kilobases long and fully assembled.
- The work is part of the Darwin Tree of Life project focusing on eukaryotic species in Britain and Ireland.

## Abstract

We present a haploid genome assembly from an individual
Eutomostethus luteiventris (Tenthredid wasp; Arthropoda; Insecta; Hymenoptera; Tenthredinidae). The genome sequence has a total length of 272.06 megabases. Most of the assembly (99.22%) is scaffolded into 6 chromosomal pseudomolecules. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled, with a length of 30.01 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.
