Chromosome-Level Genome Assembly of Leech, 1889 (Lepidoptera: Papilionidae).

A rarely seen butterfly species, the large swallowtail butterfly Leech, 1889 (Lepidoptera: Papilionidae), endemic to the Chinese mainland, has been declared a state-protected animal in China since 2000, but its genome is not yet available. To obtain high-quality genome assembly and annotation, we sequenced the genome and transcriptome of using the PacBio and PromethION platforms, respectively. The final assembled genome was 358.

New Color-Patterned Species of Kieffer, 1913 (Diptera: Chironomidae) and a Deep Intraspecific Divergence of Species by DNA Barcodes.

The genus Kieffer (Diptera: Chironomidae) has a nearly worldwide distribution, comprising more than 60 species, which are further divided into two species groups based on larval stage. However, species delimitation and identification among the adults of this genus are controversial and uncertain. For instance, previous studies have provided many synonymies based on conspecific color pattern variations in species.

Complete mitochondrial genome of (Trichoptera: Stenopsychidae).

The complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of Hwang, 1957 was assembled from Illumina high-throughput sequencing data. The circularized mitogenome has a length of 16,049 bp with a high A + T content of 77.9%, including 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 tRNA genes, and 2 rRNA genes.

Characterization of the complete mitochondrial genome of (Collembola: Entomobryidae).

The complete mitochondrial genome of was assembled from the Illumina sequencing data. The circularized genome spans 14,793 bp with a high A + T content of 75.1% and consists of 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes, two rRNA genes.
