We present a genome assembly from an individual male Eupithecia exiguata (the Mottled Pug; Arthropoda; Insecta; Lepidoptera; Geometridae). The genome sequence is 372.9 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 16.39 kilobases in length. Gene annotation of this assembly on Ensembl identified 11,194 protein coding genes.
