Phylotranscriptomics to Bring the Understudied into the Fold: Monophyletic Ostracoda, Fossil Placement, and Pancrustacean Phylogeny [PDF]
An ambitious, yet fundamental goal for comparative biology is to understand the evolutionary relationships for all of life. However, many important taxonomic groups have remained recalcitrant to inclusion into broader scale studies.

A new story of four Hexapoda classes: Protura as the sister to all other hexapods
Insects represent the most diverse animal group, yet previous phylogenetic analyses based on the morphological and molecular data have failed to agree on the evolutionary relationships of early insects and their six-legged relatives (together ...

Microbialites are common throughout the rock record and key to our understanding of Earth history, yet a relatively common microscopy technique—cathodoluminescence (CL)—has not previously been leveraged to understand them. In this contribution, we examine microbialites of varying ages (modern to Proterozoic) with CL and report on the patterns and ...

The Evolution of Collembola Higher Taxa (Arthropoda, Hexapoda) Based on Mitogenome Data
Mitogenomes represent useful tools for investigating the phylogeny of many metazoan clades. Regarding Collembola, the use of mitogenomics has already shown promising results, but few published works include sufficient taxon sampling to study its ...

Recently Evolved, Stage‐Specific Genes Are Enriched at Life‐Stage Transitions in Flies
We discovered that 20%–30% of protein‐coding genes in Drosophila melanogaster and Aedes aegypti are only expressed during specific stages of development. Surprisingly, many of these stage‐specific genes are newly evolved, unique to flies and mosquitoes, shedding light on how insect development has evolved over time.

Some misconceptions or preconceived ideas on the history of the Insects
The Hexapoda is the most diverse clade of the history of life. They cannot be considered as the oldest terrestrial animals and the first Hexapoda were small apterous animals of the Devonian soil fauna, apparently not very diverse and “dominated” by ...
