We present a genome assembly from an individual female Polydrusus cervinus (a weevil; Arthropoda; Insecta; Coleoptera; Curculionidae). The genome sequence is 713.4 megabases in span. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 11 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the X sex chromosome. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled and is 18.22 kilobases in length. Gene annotation of this assembly on Ensembl identified 23,058 protein coding genes.
