We present a genome assembly from a specimen of Ischnura senegalensis (Tropical Bluetail; Arthropoda; Insecta; Odonata; Coenagrionidae). The assembly contains two haplotypes with total lengths of 1,599.82 megabases and 1,602.78 megabases. Most of haplotype 1 (96.41%) is scaffolded into 14 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the X sex chromosome, which haplotype 2 is a scaffold-level assembly. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled and is 18.11 kilobases in length.
