The genome sequence of the setaceous Hebrew character, Xestia c-nigrum, (Linnaeus, 1758)

Abstract

We present a genome assembly from an individual male Xestia c-nigrum (the setaceous Hebrew character; Arthropoda; Insecta; Lepidoptera; Noctuidae). The genome sequence is 760 megabases in span. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 31 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the assembled Z sex chromosome. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled and is 15.3 kilobases in length.
