The genome sequence of a hoverfly, Epistrophe eligans (Harris, 1780) [version 1; peer review: 2 approved, 1 approved with reservations]

Abstract

We present a genome assembly from an individual female Epistrophe eligans (the Spring Epistrophe; Arthropoda; Insecta; Diptera; Syrphidae). The genome sequence is 405.9 megabases in span. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 5 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the X sex chromosome. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled and is 16.93 kilobases in length.
