The genome sequence of the Little Snipefly, <i>Chrysopilus asiliformis</i> (Preyssler, 1791)

We present a genome assembly from a female specimen of <i>Chrysopilus asiliformis</i> (Little Snipefly; Arthropoda; Insecta; Diptera; Rhagionidae). The genome sequence has a total length of 429.05 megabases. Most of the assembly (99.58%) is scaffolded into 5 chromosomal pseudomolecules. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled, with a length of 16.38 kilobases. Gene annotation of this assembly on Ensembl identified 14,233 protein-coding genes.
