We present a genome assembly from an individual male Saturnia pavonia (the Emperor moth; Arthropoda; Insecta; Lepidoptera; Saturniidae). The genome sequence is 489.9 megabases in span. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 30 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the Z sex chromosome. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled and is 15.29 kilobases in length. Gene annotation of this assembly on Ensembl identified 11,903 protein coding genes.
