The genome sequence of the northern brown argus, Aricia artaxerxes (Fabricius, 1793).

ABSTRACT: We present a genome assembly from an individual Aricia artaxerxes (the northern brown argus; Arthropoda; Insecta; Lepidoptera; Lycaenidae). The genome sequence is 458 megabases in span. Most of the assembly (99.99%) is scaffolded into 23 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the assembled Z sex chromosome. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled and is 15.8 kilobases in length. Gene annotation of this assembly on Ensembl has identified 12,688 protein coding genes.
