This dataset features tissue collection information, reference genome assembly, and single nucleotide polymorphisim (SNP) genotypes of 23 Hawaiian hoary bats collected across four Hawaiian Islands, Hawaii, Maui, Oahu, and Kauai. These data were collected in order to examine the phylogenetic history and patterns of genetic variation in the Hawaiian hoary bat. The raw sequencing data are deposited to National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) Sequence Read Archive (SRA) under accession PRJNA559902. The data are archived in GenBank at the following URL: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/bioproject/559902.

This dataset contains the reference genome assembly, created from 23 Hawaiian hoary bats collected across the four Hawaiian Islands, Hawaii, Maui, Oahu, and Kauai. These data were collected in order to examine the phylogenetic history and patterns of genetic variation in the Hawaiian hoary bat. The raw sequencing data are deposited to National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) Sequence Read Archive (SRA) under accession PRJNA559902. The data are archived in GenBank at the following URL: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/bioproject/559902. The data are stored in two files, one in a text-based FASTA format (HHB genome 2009-2015.fa) and the other in general feature format (HHB genome features 2009-2015.gff), both readable with text editors (e.g., Notepad) or text-processing/scripting tools (e.g., R or Python).

Genetic diversity levels, effective population size estimates, and population structure of the endangered Hawaiian hoary bat (Lasiurus semotus, also known as Aeorestes semotus) were examined across the islands of Hawai‘i, Maui, O‘ahu, and Kaua‘i using eighteen nuclear microsatellite loci and one mitochondrial gene from 339 individuals collected between 1988 and 2020. The study extracted DNA for population genetic analyses from tissue samples, collected from live bats captured as part of ongoing field studies or under rehabilitation care, from bat carcasses collected by local federal and state wildlife agencies and wind energy facilities, and from dried skin specimens at the Bernice Pauahi Bishop Museum. A region of the mitochondrial CO1 gene was sequenced in 321 individuals. This dataset contains the mitochondrial gene region cytochrome oxidase subunit 1 (CO1) DNA sequences generated from 321 individual bat samples.
