The genome sequence of the Oak Hook-tip, Watsonalla binaria (Hufnagel, 1767) [version 1; peer review: 2 approved]
Abstract
We present a genome assembly from an individual female Watsonalla binaria (the Oak Hook-tip; Arthropoda; Insecta; Lepidoptera; Drepanidae). The genome sequence is 333.0 megabases in span. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 33 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the W and Z sex chromosomes. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled and is 15.24 kilobases in length. Gene annotation of this assembly on Ensembl identified 16,002 protein coding genes.
