The genome sequence of the Catalonian Wall Lizard, <i>Podarcis liolepis</i> (Boulenger, 1905) (Squamata: Lacertidae)

We present a genome assembly from an individual female <i>Podarcis liolepis</i> (Catalonian Wall Lizard; Chordata; Lepidosauria; Squamata; Lacertidae). The assembly contains two haplotypes with total lengths of 1 574.00 megabases and 1 478.08 megabases. Most of haplotype 1 (97.05%) is scaffolded into 20 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the W and Z sex chromosomes. Haplotype 2 was assembled to scaffold level. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled, with a length of 17.32 kilobases.
