We present a genome assembly from an individual female Araneus angulatus (orb-weaver spider; Arthropoda; Arachnida; Araneae; Araneidae). The assembly contains two haplotypes with total lengths of 2 980.91 megabases and 2 941.08 megabases. Most of haplotype 1 (94.74%) is scaffolded into 28 chromosomal pseudomolecules. Haplotype 2 was assembled to scaffold level. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled, with a length of 14.53 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.
