Abstract

We present a genome assembly from an individual male <i>Kyklioacalles roboris</i> (cryptorhynchine weevil; Arthropoda; Insecta; Coleoptera; Curculionidae). The assembly contains two haplotypes with total lengths of 698.93 megabases and 609.02 megabases. Most of haplotype 1 (87.44%) is scaffolded into 20 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the X and Y sex chromosomes. Haplotype 2 was assembled to scaffold level. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled, with a length of 20.21 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.
