We present a genome assembly from a female Eudonia mercurella (Small Grey; Arthropoda; Insecta; Lepidoptera; Crambidae). The genome sequence has a total length of 591.50 megabases. Most of the assembly (96.86%) is scaffolded into 33 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the Z sex chromosome. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled and is 15.31 kilobases in length. Gene annotation of this assembly on Ensembl identified 13,075 protein-coding genes.
