Abstract

We present a genome assembly from an individual female Campoletis raptor (an ichneumonid wasp; Arthropoda; Insecta; Hymenoptera; Ichneumonidae). The genome sequence is 218.6 megabases in span. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 11 chromosomal pseudomolecules. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled and is 28.53 kilobases in length.

Keywords: Campoletis raptor; Hymenoptera; an ichneumonid wasp; chromosomal; genome sequence.
