The genome sequence of the Lunar Hornet, Sesia bembeciformis (Hübner 1806) [version 1; peer review: 2 approved, 1 approved with reservations]

We present a genome assembly from an individual male Sesia bembeciformis (the Lunar Hornet; Arthropoda; Insecta; Lepidoptera; Sesiidae). The genome sequence is 477.1 megabases in span. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 31 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the Z sex chromosome. The mitocho...

description We present a genome assembly from an individual male Sesia bembeciformis (the Lunar Hornet; Arthropoda; Insecta; Lepidoptera; Sesiidae). The genome sequence is 477.1 megabases in span. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 31 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the Z sex chromosome. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled and is 16.1 kilobases in length. Gene annotation of this assembly on Ensembl has identified 15,843 protein coding genes.
