Abstract
We present a genome assembly from an individual male Lordithon lunulatus (rove beetle; Arthropoda; Insecta; Coleoptera; Staphylinidae). The genome sequence spans 674.40 megabases. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 10 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the X sex chromosome. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled and is 19.26 kilobases in length.
