We present a genome assembly from an individual male Ocys tachysoides (ground beetle; Arthropoda; Insecta; Coleoptera; Carabidae). The primary assembly has a total length of 493.76 megabases. Most of the primary assembly (83.47%) is scaffolded into 7 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the X sex chromosome. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled, with a length of 18.2 kilobases. This assembly was generated as part of the Darwin Tree of Life project, which produces genomes for eukaryotic species found in Britain and Ireland.

Most of the haplotype 1 assembly (67.81%) was scaffolded into 23 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the X sex chromosome. Most of haplotype 2 (71.48%) is scaffolded into 22 chromosomal pseudomolecules. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled, with a length of 18.39 kilobases. This assembly was generated as part of the Darwin Tree of Life project, which produces genomes for eukaryotic species found in Britain and Ireland.

The haplotype 1 assembly and the haplotype 2 assembly each contain 10 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the X sex chromosome; these account for 93.56% and 93.72% of their respective sequences. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled, with a length of 19.64 kilobases. This assembly was generated as part of the Darwin Tree of Life project, which produces genomes for eukaryotic species found in Britain and Ireland.

The assembly contains two haplotypes with total lengths of 1,457.47 megabases and 1,399.10 megabases. Most of the haplotype 1 assembly (89.76%) was scaffolded into 21 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the X sex chromosome. Haplotype 2 was assembled to scaffold level. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled, with a length of 23.36 kilobases. This assembly was generated as part of the Darwin Tree of Life project, which produces genomes for eukaryotic species found in Britain and Ireland.

Two new Neotropical species of Osphya Illiger, 1807, a small genus of tenebrionoid Coleoptera, is described from the old secondary rainforests of the Petén-Veracruz moist forest ecoregion of Belize, based on material housed at the Natural History Museum in London. These are first new species of this genus and family to be described from Central America in nearly 150 years. Keys to the American Osphya and the genera of Osphyidae Mulsant, 1856 are presented for the first time. Lectotypes are designated for O. pallida Champion, 1889 and O. tuberculiventris Champion, 1889 to maintain nomenclatural stability. Images of Champion's types of Central American Osphya are provided. The genus Brasilium Pic, 1917 is moved to the subfamily Scraptiinae Gistel, 1848 of Scraptiidae Gistel, 1848 based on the adult morphology. Type species is designated for the genus Brasilium, and an annotated checklist of its species is presented for the first time.
