Abstract

We present a genome assembly from an individual female Tenthredo notha (Arthropoda; Insecta; Hymenoptera; Tenthredinidae). The genome sequence is 253 megabases in span. Most of the assembly (99.91%) is scaffolded into 20 chromosomal pseudomolecules. The mitochondrial genome was also assembled and is 19.8 kilobases in length. Gene annotation of this assembly on Ensembl has identified 10,235 protein coding genes.

Keywords: Hymenoptera; Tenthredo notha; chromosomal; genome sequence; sawfly.
