Phylogenomics reveals the timescale of diversification in Amblycera

open access: yesSystematic Entomology, Volume 50, Issue 3, Page 540-553, July 2025.
Next‐generation sequencing changes the higher taxonomy of Amblycera (Insecta: Phthiraptera). Families Trimenoponidae and Gyropidae merge into Gyropidae; Trinotonidae is a separate family; several genera are paraphyletic. The ancestral host of Amblycera was likely a bird; Amblycera switched to mammals twice.
