We present a genome assembly from an individual Metridium senile (the brown sea anemone; Cnidaria; Anthozoa; Actiniaria; Metridiidae). The genome sequence is 390.9 megabases in span. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 16 chromosomal pseudomolecules. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled and is 17.44 kilobases in length.
