Abstract The school shark, Galeorhinus galeus (Linnaeus, 1758), is the only extant species within its genus and is widely distributed in benthopelagic habitats of temperate coastal regions. Fishing pressure has caused global population declines by more than 80%, resulting in the species being listed as Critically Endangered. Here, we present the first chromosome-level, haplotype-phased reference genome assemblies for G. galeus, including assemblies of both male and female individuals.
