Abstract

We present a genome assembly from an individual female Pararge aegeria (the speckled wood butterfly; Arthropoda; Insecta; Lepidoptera; Nymphalidae). The genome sequence is 517 megabases in span. The majority of the assembly (99.68%) is scaffolded into 29 chromosomal pseudomolecules, with the W and Z sex chromosome assembled. Gene annotation of this assembly on Ensembl has identified 12,288 protein coding genes.
