Abstract
Actias luna, the luna moth, is a Nearctic species in the family Saturniidae, the giant silk moths. Known for its large size, bright green wings and elongated tails, it is found in Eastern North America, from east of the Great Plains in the United States, and from Saskatchewan eastward through central Quebec to Nova Scotia in Canada. We present the complete genome sequence of this species. Raw read data and the assembled genome are available in Genbank.
