    Abstract:
    Recent conservation efforts to protect rare and endangered aquatic species have intensified. Nevertheless, the ornate spiny lobster (Panulirus ornatus), which is prevalent in the Indo-Pacific waters, has been largely ignored. In the absence of a detailed genomic reference, the conservation and population genetics of this crustacean are poorly understood. Here, We assembled a comprehensive chromosome-level genome for P. ornatus. This genome-among the most detailed for lobsters-spans 2.65 Gb with a contig N50 of 51.05 Mb, and 99.11% of the sequences with incorporated to 73 chromosomes. The ornate spiny lobster genome comprises 65.67% repeat sequences and 22,752 protein-coding genes with 99.20% of the genes functionally annotated. The assembly of the P. ornatus genome provides valuable insights into comparative crustacean genomics and endangered species conservation, and lays the groundwork for future research on the speciation, ecology, and evolution of the ornate spiny lobster.
