The genome sequence of the July Highflyer, Hydriomena furcata (Thunberg, 1784) [version 1; peer review: 2 approved]

Abstract

We present a genome assembly from an individual male Hydriomena furcata (the July Highflyer; Arthropoda; Insecta; Lepidoptera; Geometridae). The genome sequence is 423.3 megabases in span. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 28 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the Z sex chromosome. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled and is 15.89 kilobases in length. Gene annotation of this assembly on Ensembl identified 17,324 protein coding genes.
