The genome sequence of a pipunculid fly, Nephrocerus scutellatus (Macquart, 1834) [version 1; peer review: 2 approved]

Abstract

We present a genome assembly from an individual female Nephrocerus scutellatus (pipunculid fly; Arthropoda; Insecta; Diptera; Pipunculidae). The genome sequence is 613.4 megabases in span. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 6 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the X sex chromosome. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled and is 18.18 kilobases in length.
