We present a genome assembly from an individual Astropecten irregularis (the sand star; Echinodermata; Asteroidea; Paxillosida; Astropectinidae). The genome sequence spans 475.80 megabases. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 22 chromosomal pseudomolecules. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled and is 16.34 kilobases in length.
