Lepidoptera Phylogenomic Data: 100 Nuclear Loci from 33 Specimens

A phylogenomic dataset for Lepidoptera, containing refined alignments for 100 nuclear protein-coding loci and a concatenated DNA matrix from 33 specimens. The dataset, created by Jiaxuan Li, also includes a phylogenetic tree output generated by IQ-Tree2. It was last updated on April 18, 2026.

Use Cases

• Phylogenetic tree construction based on the provided 100 nuclear loci alignments.
• Molecular evolution analysis based on the concatenated DNA data matrix.
• Benchmarking phylogenetic inference tools using the provided IQ-Tree2 output.
• Developing or testing primer design methods for amplicon capture phylogenomics.

Strengths

• Contains data for 100 specific nuclear protein-coding loci.
• Includes a final phylogenetic tree output from a standard tool (IQ-Tree2).
• Data is derived from 33 Lepidoptera specimens.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• The geographic and temporal scope of the specimens is not specified.
