Abstract

We present a genome assembly from an individual female <i>Curculio glandium</i> (Acorn Weevil; Arthropoda; Insecta; Coleoptera; Curculionidae). The genome sequence has a total length of 1 121.34 megabases. Most of the assembly (97.77%) is scaffolded into 13 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the X sex chromosome. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled, with a length of 21.61 kilobases. This assembly was generated as part of the Darwin Tree of Life project, which produces reference genomes for eukaryotic species found in Britain and Ireland.
