Abstract:
We present a genome assembly from a male specimen of Cryptocephalus primarius (Rock-rose Pot Beetle; Arthropoda; Insecta; Coleoptera; Chrysomelidae). The genome sequence has a total length of 370.99 megabases. Most of the assembly (87.88%) is scaffolded into 21 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the X and Y sex chromosomes. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled and is 17.97 kilobases in length. Gene annotation of this assembly on Ensembl identified 10,661 protein-coding genes.
