The genome sequence of the tapered dronefly, Eristalis pertinax (Scopoli, 1763) [version 2; peer review: 2 approved]
Abstract
We present a genome assembly from an individual male Eristalis pertinax (the tapered dronefly; Arthropoda; Insecta; Diptera; Syriphidae). The genome sequence is 487 megabases in span. The majority of the assembly (95.23%) is scaffolded into seven chromosomal pseudomolecules, with the X and Y sex chromosomes assembled. The complete mitochondrial genome was also assembled and is 17.2 kilobases in length.
