We present a genome assembly from an individual female Tuberolachnus salignus (the giant willow aphid; Arthropoda; Insecta; Hemiptera; Aphididae). The genome sequence is 456.8 megabases in span. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 10 chromosomal pseudomolecules. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled and is 22.43 kilobases in length.
