Abstract:
We present a genome assembly from an individual female Chrysops viduatus (Square-spot Deerfly; Arthropoda; Insecta; Diptera; Tabanidae). The genome sequence has a total length of 312.35 megabases. Most of the assembly (87.6%) is scaffolded into 5 chromosomal pseudomolecules. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled, with a length of 16.08 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.

If the observed data point lies above the line, the residual is positive, and the line underestimates the actual data value for y. If the observed data point lies below the line, the residual is negative, and the line overestimates the actual data value for y.
