Abstract:
We present a genome assembly from an individual female Diplazon laetatorius (ichneumonid wasp; Arthropoda; Insecta; Hymenoptera; Ichneumonidae). The genome sequence is 251.0 megabases in span. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 15 chromosomal pseudomolecules. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled and is 29.27 kilobases in length.
