The genome sequence of the Woodland Grayling, Hipparchia fagi (Scopoli, 1763) (Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae)

<ns3:p> We present a genome assembly from a male specimen of <ns3:italic>Hipparchia fagi</ns3:italic> (Woodland Grayling; Arthropoda; Insecta; Lepidoptera; Nymphalidae). The assembly contains two haplotypes with total lengths of 380.62 megabases and 381.27 megabases. Most of haplotype 1 (99.92%) is scaffolded into 29 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the Z sex chromosome. Haplotype 2 was assembled to scaffold level. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled, with a length of 15.47 kilobases. This work is part of Project Psyche, a collaborative programme generating genomes for European butterflies and moths. </ns3:p>
