The genome sequence of a muscid fly, <i>Phaonia angelicae</i> (Scopoli, 1763) (Diptera: Muscidae)

We present a genome assembly from an individual female <i>Phaonia angelicae</i> (muscid fly; Arthropoda; Insecta; Diptera; Muscidae). The assembly contains two haplotypes with total lengths of 1 593.88 megabases and 1 575.57 megabases. Most of haplotype 1 (97.48%) is scaffolded into 5 chromosomal pseudomolecules. Haplotype 2 was assembled to scaffold level. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled, with a length of 17.82 kilobases. Gene annotation of this assembly on Ensembl identified 13 923 protein-coding genes. This assembly was generated as part of the Darwin Tree of Life project, which produces reference genomes for eukaryotic species found in Britain and Ireland.
