New aquatic insects from the Miocene of Australia with notes on the ecology and ontogeny of a new species of Chaoborus (Diptera, Chaoboridae)

Papers in Palaeontology, Volume 10, Issue 4, July/August 2024.
Abstract We describe a diverse aquatic insect assemblage from McGraths Flat, a Miocene Lagerstätte in central New South Wales, Australia that includes representatives of Sialidae, Limoniidae, Chironomidae and Chaoboridae. The aquatic insect fossils from this deposit consist predominantly of larvae.

Redefining Ormyridae (Hymenoptera, Chalcidoidea) with establishment of subfamilies and description of new genera

Systematic Entomology, Volume 49, Issue 3, Page 447-494, July 2024.
We redefine the circumscription of Ormyridae based on a phylogenomic dataset and morphological reassessment. Based on the phylogenetic results and comparative morphological assessment, subfamilies are established for the first time. The results support the description of two new genera Halleriaphagus van Noort and Burks, gen.

Phylogenomic analysis of protein‐coding genes resolves complex gall wasp relationships

Systematic Entomology, Volume 49, Issue 1, Page 110-137, January 2024.
We present the first phylogenomic analysis of gall wasp relationships (Hymenoptera: Cynipidae) based on protein‐coding sequence data from genome and transcriptome assemblies. Our results confirm previous analyses of ultra‐conserved elements, suggesting that the family falls into three lineages, recognized here as separate families: Cynipidae (s. str.),
