We present a genome assembly from an individual male Eupithecia centaureata (the Lime-speck Pug; Arthropoda; Insect; Lepidoptera; Geometridae). The genome sequence is 465.6 megabases in span. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 32 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the assembled Z sex chromosome. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled and is 15.3 kilobases in length. Gene annotation of this assembly on Ensembl identified 18,717 protein coding genes
