title: Rapid assembly of taxonomically validated mitochondrial genomes from historical insect collections
design: DNA was extracted from a single leg of 35 dry-preserved "British butterfly" specimens. DNA was pooled and used for the production of a TruSeq Nano library. Twelve cycles of enrichment were performed. The library was sequenced using 2x250 PE and a v2 kit.
