We present the chromosome sequences of a Naegleria fowleri isolate from a human primary amebic meningoencephalitis (PAM) case. The genome sequences were assembled from Illumina HiSeq and PacBio sequencing data and verified with the optical mapping data. This led to the identification of 37 contigs representing 37 chromosomes in N. fowleri .
