The dorsal chaetotaxy of Trogolaphysa (Collembola, Paronellidae), with descriptions of two new species from caves in Belize

open access: yesZooKeys, 2013
Species diagnosis in Trogolaphysa has been based, until now, almost exclusively on number of eyes and shape of claws and mucro. Chaetotaxy, a character system important to diagnose species in other genera of scaled Entomobryoidea, has been described only

Speciation Pattern and Process in the California Coastal Dune Endemic Trapdoor Spider Aptostichus simus (Mygalomorphae: Euctenizidae) and Description of a New Cryptic Species

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 10, October 2025.
The integrative species delimitation process employed herein comprises three steps: species discovery, species validation, and species description. Phylogenetic analysis of sub‐genomic data revealed three major lineages within the trapdoor spider Aptostichus simus.

Evolutionary systematics of the Staphylininae rove beetles (Coleoptera: Staphylinidae) resolved by integration of phylogenomics, comparative morphology and historical biogeography

open access: yesSystematic Entomology, Volume 50, Issue 4, Page 750-779, October 2025.
Higher classification of the rove beetle subfamily Staphylininae is revised based on novel phylogenomic, morphological and biogeographic evidence. Four new subtribes are described for Staphylininae; of them, two are for the tribe Tanygnathinini and two are for the tribe Staphylinini, and both tribes changed in composition due to other novelties ...

A comparative description of the thorax chaetotaxy of the Dolichopodidae (Diptera)

open access: yesTURKISH JOURNAL OF ZOOLOGY, 2016
A study of 270 species belonging to 210 genera of the family Dolichopodidae was conducted to examine their characters of thorax chaetotaxy. The quantity of acrostichal setae series, number of dorsocentral setae pairs, and quantity and degree of developed scutellar setae were studied. The humeral, posthumeral, intraalar, notopleural, supraalar, postalar,

Phylogenomics and revised classification of Lymexyloidea and Tenebrionoidea (Coleoptera: Polyphaga: Cucujiformia)

open access: yesSystematic Entomology, Volume 50, Issue 4, Page 794-812, October 2025.
Using a large‐scale phylogenomic dataset, we provide the robustly supported phylogeny of the wider Tenebrionoid clade, with Lymexyloidea sister to the mordelloid clade (Mordellidae and Ripiphoridae) + remaining Tenebrionoidea. Lymexyloidea contained two newly circumscribed families, each of them with two subfamilies, and both Mordellidae and ...

Body chaetotaxy of three noctuid caterpillars. (Lepidoptera)

open access: yesDeutsche Entomologische Zeitschrift, 1987
The body chaetotaxy of three noctuid caterpillars have been elaborated to evolve the features of taxonomic importance. The punctures, relative lenght of the setae of SD and L groups on the prothorax, MD group on the meso- and metathorax and the SDI and SV groups on abdomen are depicted as diagnostic features in the present study.

Gastritis over Gastrisus Sharp (Coleoptera: Staphylinidae: Xanthopygina): Resolving a major taxonomic impediment with phylogenomics

open access: yesSystematic Entomology, Volume 50, Issue 3, Page 449-468, July 2025.
Comprehensive phylogeny of Xanthopygina rove beetles (Coleoptera: Staphylinidae), including 30 of 33 genera, was generated by anchored hybrid enrichment of 1229 nuclear, protein‐encoding loci. We resolved nine major clades within Xanthopygina, including the new Leptodiastemus group, and successfully delineated a monophyletic concept of Gastrisus ...
