The genome sequence of the Red-green Carpet, Chloroclysta siterata (Hufnagel, 1767)

Abstract

We present a genome assembly from an individual male Chloroclysta siterata (the Red-green Carpet; Arthropoda; Insecta; Lepidoptera; Geometridae). The genome sequence is 437.9 megabases in span. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 21 chromosomal pseudomolecules including the Z sex chromosome. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled and is 16.7 kilobases in length. Gene annotation of this assembly on Ensembl identified 11,814 protein coding genes.
