Abstract

We present a genome assembly from an individual male Lysandra coridon (the Chalkhill Blue; Arthropoda; Insecta; Lepidoptera; Lycaenidae). The genome sequence is 541 megabases in span. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 90 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the assembled Z sex chromosome. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled and is 15.4 kilobases in length. Gene annotation of this assembly on Ensembl identified 13,334 protein coding genes.
