TL;DR: Agarwal et al. as mentioned in this paper present a genome assembly from an individual female Aglais urticae (also known as Nymphalis urticiae) with the majority of the assembly is scaffolded into 32 chromosomal pseudomolecules, with the W and Z sex chromosome assembled.
Abstract: We present a genome assembly from an individual female Aglais urticae (also known as Nymphalis urticae ; the small tortoiseshell; Arthropoda; Insecta; Lepidoptera; Nymphalidae). The genome sequence is 384 megabases in span. The majority of the assembly is scaffolded into 32 chromosomal pseudomolecules, with the W and Z sex chromosome assembled.

Abstract: The effects are described of organochlorine insecticides on two indigenous British species of wildlife: the peregrine falcon (Falco peregrinus Tunstall) and the small tortoiseshell butterfly (Aglais urticae [L.]). Four conclusions are drawn about the effects of pesticides on wildlife, which are then used to consider the possible risks from organophosphorus insecticides.
