We present a genome assembly from an individual female Nowickia ferox (a tachinid fly; Arthropoda; Insecta; Diptera; Tachinidae). The genome sequence is 670.7 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 17.19 kilobases in length. Gene annotation of this assembly on Ensembl identified 27,893 protein coding genes.
