We present a genome assembly from an individual female Eristalinus aeneus (a hoverfly; Arthropoda; Insecta; Diptera; Syrphidae). The genome sequence is 495.4 megabases in span. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 6 chromosomal pseudomolecules. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled and is 15.97 kilobases in length.
