The genome sequence of the Discrete Chaperon, Cymbalophora pudica (Esper, 1784) (Lepidoptera: Erebidae)
Year: 2026
Type: article
Abstract: We present a genome assembly from a female specimen of Cymbalophora pudica (Discrete Chaperon; Arthropoda; Insecta; Lepidoptera; Erebidae). The assembly contains two haplotypes with total lengths of 814.97 megabases and 743.43 megabases. Most of haplotype 1 (99.73%) is scaffolded into 32 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the W and Z sex chromosomes. Haplotype 2 was assembled to scaffold level. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled, with a length of 15.39 kilobases. This work is part of Project Psyche, a collaborative programme generating genomes for European butterflies and moths.
