Abstract

<ns3:p> We present a genome assembly from an individual male <ns3:italic>Anopheles moucheti</ns3:italic> (the malaria mosquito; Arthropoda; Insecta; Diptera; Culicidae), from a wild population in Cameroon. The genome sequence is 271 megabases in span. The majority of the assembly is scaffolded into three chromosomal pseudomolecules with the X sex chromosome assembled. The complete mitochondrial genome was also assembled and is 15.5 kilobases in length. </ns3:p>
