ERGA-BGE genome of Albinaria teres (Olivier, 1801): a rock-dwelling land snail endemic to the island of Crete, Greece
<ns3:p> <ns3:italic>Albinaria teres</ns3:italic> is a small rock-dwelling terrestrial gastropod of Greece. It is a polytypic species containing ten subspecies, all endemic to the island of Crete, highlighting the high diversification which characterize the whole genus of <ns3:italic>Albinaria</ns3:italic> . The reference genome of <ns3:italic>Albinaria teres</ns3:italic> offers a crucial resource for uncovering phylogenetic relationships within the enigmatic genus of <ns3:italic>Albinaria,</ns3:italic> as well as for unravelling the genetic basis of its environmental adaptations. The entirety of the genome sequence was assembled into 31 contiguous chromosomal pseudomolecules. This chromosome-level assembly encompasses 1.71 Gb, composed of 418 contigs and 43 scaffolds, with contig and scaffold N50 values of 7.88 Mb and 57.6 Mb, respectively. </ns3:p>
