The genome sequence of a soldier beetle, Malthinus flaveolus (Herbst, 1786) [version 1; peer review: 2 approved]

We present a genome Papaya assembly from an individual female Malthinus flaveolus (soldier beetle; Arthropoda; Insecta; Coleoptera; Cantharidae).The genome sequence is 236.7 megabases in span.

Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 6 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the X sex Cover Sets chromosome.The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled and is 19.27 kilobases in length.

Gene annotation of this assembly on Ensembl identified 16,617 protein coding genes.
