The genome sequence of the Pale Pinion, Lithophane socia (Hufnagel, 1766)

Abstract

We present a genome assembly from an individual male Lithophane socia (the Pale Pinion; Arthropoda; Insecta; Lepidoptera; Noctuidae). The genome sequence is 489.3 megabases in span. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 31 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the Z sex chromosome. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled and is 15.39 kilobases in length. Gene annotation of this assembly on Ensembl identified 18,342 protein coding genes.
