## TL;DR

This paper presents the genome sequence of the anthomyiid fly Pegoplata infirma, including its chromosomes and mitochondrial DNA.

## Contribution

The study provides a high-quality genome assembly of Pegoplata infirma, including sex chromosomes and mitochondrial genome.

- The genome assembly spans 1384.4 megabases and is scaffolded into 7 chromosomal pseudomolecules.
- The mitochondrial genome is 16.15 kilobases long and has been fully assembled.

## Abstract

We present a genome assembly from an individual male
Pegoplata infirma (anthomyiid fly; Arthropoda; Insecta; Diptera; Anthomyiidae). The genome sequence is 1384.4 megabases in span. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 7 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the X and Y sex chromosomes. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled and is 16.15 kilobases in length.
