The genome sequence of the Copper-tipped Ermine, Pseudoswammerdamia combinella (Hübner, 1786) (Lepidoptera: Yponomeutidae)
We present a genome assembly from an individual female Pseudoswammerdamia combinella (Copper-tipped Ermine; Arthropoda; Insecta; Lepidoptera; Yponomeutidae). The genome sequence has a total length of 604.80 megabases. Most of the assembly (99.84%) is scaffolded into 32 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the W and Z sex chromosomes. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled, with a length of 16.16 kilobases. This assembly was generated as part of the Darwin Tree of Life project, which produces genomes for eukaryotic species found in Britain and Ireland.
