The genome sequence of a long-legged fly, Neurigona quadrifasciata (Fabricius, 1781) (Diptera: Dolichopodidae)
We present a genome assembly from an individual female <i>Neurigona quadrifasciata</i> (long-legged fly; Arthropoda; Insecta; Diptera; Dolichopodidae). The genome sequence has a total length of 582.53 megabases. Most of the assembly (99.61%) is scaffolded into 6 chromosomal pseudomolecules. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled, with a length of 16.89 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.
