# The genome sequence of the Moorland Grey, Eudonia murana (Curtis, 1827) (Lepidoptera: Crambidae)

## TL;DR

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

## Contribution

The study provides a high-quality genome assembly for Eudonia murana, including sex chromosomes and mitochondrial genome, as part of a broader biodiversity project.

## Key findings

- The genome assembly includes two haplotypes with lengths of 729.58 and 550.40 megabases.
- Haplotype 1 is mostly scaffolded into 31 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including W, Z1, and Z2 sex chromosomes.
- The mitochondrial genome is assembled with a length of 15.34 kilobases.

## Abstract

We present a genome assembly from an individual female
Eudonia murana (Moorland Grey; Arthropoda; Insecta; Lepidoptera; Crambidae). The assembly contains two haplotypes with total lengths of 729.58 megabases and 550.40 megabases. Most of haplotype 1 (98.55%) is scaffolded into 31 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the W, Z
1 and Z
2 sex chromosomes. Most of haplotype 2 (95.39%) is scaffolded into 28 chromosomal pseudomolecules. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled, with a length of 15.34 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.
