The genome sequence of an ichneumonid wasp, <i>Netelia melanura</i> (Thomson, 1888) (Hymenoptera: Ichneumonidae)

We present a genome assembly from an individual male <i>Netelia melanura</i> (ichneumonid wasp; Arthropoda; Insecta; Hymenoptera; Ichneumonidae). The genome sequence has a total length of 253.87 megabases. Most of the assembly (94.81%) is scaffolded into 7 chromosomal pseudomolecules. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled, with a length of 28.04 kilobases. 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.
