The genome sequence of the Goose Foot Starfish, Anseropoda placenta (Pennant, 1777) (Valvatida: Asterinidae).

We present a genome assembly from an individual Anseropoda placenta (Goose Foot Starfish; Echinodermata; Asteroidea; Valvatida; Asterinidae). The assembly contains two haplotypes with total lengths of 533.27 megabases and 454.27 megabases. Most of haplotype 1 (70.67%) is scaffolded into 22 chromosomal pseudomolecules. Haplotype 2 was assembled to scaffold level. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled, with a length of 16.42 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.
