Coleoptera Genome Sampling with Family and Superfamily Metadata

A dataset of genome identifiers and taxonomic assignments for Coleoptera (beetles) curated by Dwayne Tally. The 17.0 KB collection includes files for downstream comparative analyses of chromosome evolution, synteny conservation, and sex chromosome inference. It was last updated on May 12, 2026.

Use Cases

• Comparative analysis of chromosome evolution based on curated genome sampling.
• Inference of sex chromosomes using the provided genome identifiers and taxonomic metadata.
• Studying synteny conservation across beetle families and superfamilies.
• Validating taxonomic classifications for Coleoptera genomes.

Strengths

• Dataset is small at 17.0 KB, facilitating quick download and inspection.
• Taxonomic assignments are curated for family and superfamily classifications.
• Released under a permissive CC0-1.0 license for unrestricted use.

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
