The genome sequence of the Bearded Fool fly, Megamerina dolium (Fabricus, 1805)

Abstract

We present a genome assembly from an individual female Megamerina dolium (the Bearded Fool; Arthropoda; Insecta; Diptera; Megamerinidae). The genome sequence is 500.5 megabases in span. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 6 chromosomal pseudomolecules. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled and is 16.67 kilobases in length.
