Mitochondrial Genomes of Two Bombycoidea Insects and Implications for Their Phylogeny [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2017 The mitochondrial genome (mt genome) provides important information for understanding molecular evolution and phylogenetics. As such, the two complete mt genomes of Ampelophaga rubiginosa and Rondotia menciana were sequenced and annotated.

Phylogeny and classification of Endromidae (Lepidoptera: Bombycoidea) based on mitochondrial genomes [PDF]
Arthropod Systematics & Phylogeny, 2023 The small, relict-like moth family Endromidae is well-established within the superfamily Bombycoidea, but relationships within the family have remained vague for the last decade, primarily due to very limited taxon sampling. This resulted in the explicit

Cis-regulatory evolution of Wnt family genes contributes to a morphological difference between silkworm species. [PDF]
PLoS BiologyClosely related species often exhibit distinct morphologies that can contribute to species-specific adaptations and reproductive isolation. One example is Lepidopteran caterpillar appendages, such as the "caudal horn" of Bombycoidea moths, which have ...
