The genome sequence of the Dark Umber moth, <i>Philereme transversata</i> (Hufnagel, 1767)

We present a genome assembly from a male specimen of <i>Philereme transversata</i> (Dark Umber; Arthropoda; Insecta; Lepidoptera; Geometridae). The genome sequence has a total length of 591.75 megabases. Most of the assembly (99.1%) is scaffolded into 20 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the Z sex chromosome. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled, with a length of 16.07 kilobases. Gene annotation of this assembly on Ensembl identified 12,207 protein-coding genes.
