Abstract
We present a genome assembly from an individual female Gulosus aristotelis, previously known as Phalacrocorax aristotelis, (the European shag; Chordata; Aves; Pelecaniformes; Phalacrocoracidae). The genome sequence is 1,279.1 megabases in span. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 36 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the Z and W sex chromosomes. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled and is 18.61 kilobases in length. Gene annotation of this assembly on Ensembl identified 16,474 protein coding genes.
