Lophostoma evotis (Davis' round-eared bat) genome, mLopEvo1, sequence data

Davis's round-eared bat (Lophostoma evotis) is a species of bat in the family Phyllostomidae. It is found in Belize, Guatemala, Honduras, and southeastern Mexico (from Wikipedia entry). This sample of a male individual found in Orange Walk District, Lamanai, Belize, was procured by Nancy Simmons to generate a high-quality reference genome for Bat1K and the Bat Biology Foundation. Sequencing was conducted at Paratus Sciences and genome assembly was conducted at the Vertebrate Genome Lab (VGL) at the Rockefeller University, led by Erich D. Jarvis, Giulio Formenti, and Jennifer Balacco.
