Age estimates of Xylocopinae root age and tribe origins obtained from a relaxed clock model.
The root node, connecting the corbiculate outgroup with the Xylocopinae, was set at four different values, ranging from 90 Mya to 120 Mya to explore the effects on internal node estimates.

Task allocation and reproductive skew in social mass provisioning carpenter bees in relation to age and size [PDF]
The mass provisioning carpenter bees comprise two tribes, the Xylocopini and the Ceratinini. Although social nesting occurs in both tribes, no morphological castes have evolved and females are totipotent, which makes the tribe as a whole highly ...

Evolution of sociality in the Xylocopinae.
Chronogram of the Xylocopinae based on 70 species from all extant xylocopine tribes. The chronogram was derived from a log normal relaxed clock model in BEAST and posterior probability support for each node is indicated by numbers above branches.

Abejas carpinteras (Hymenoptera: Apidae: Xylocopinae: Xylocopini) de la región neotropical
Xylocopa contiene 31 subgéneros y alrededor de 480 especies en todo el mundo; de estos se han registrado 12 subgéneros y 96 especies en el Neotrópico. Por el tamaño relativamente pequeño de Xylocopinae, en esta sinopsis se incluyen Xylocopini, Manuelini ...
