Humble beginnings of the Australian giant wood moth (Endoxyla cinereus): A century‐old mystery solved

Insect Science, EarlyView.
The Australian giant wood moth (Endoxyla cinereus) feeds within the galls of scale insects (Apiomorpha) before transitioning into its wood‐boring eucalypt larval phase. This transitionary phase may be key to its multi‐year development, at the end of which it can produce over 100 000 eggs.

A revised classification system of the marronoid clade of spiders (Araneae), based on dense sampling phylogenomics and comparative morphology

Cladistics, EarlyView.
Abstract The marronoid clade is a globally distributed, ecologically diverse group of spiders. It is an important faunal component in both natural and synanthropic environments, and even found in aquatic and extreme habitats such as desert salt flats. The systematics of the marronoid clade has been notoriously unstable due to the widespread character ...

Testing the morphology‐ and intuition‐based taxonomic hypotheses using integrative approach: unexpected discovery of triplet of sibling species within a widespread Eurasian butterfly, Hyponephele lycaon

Cladistics, EarlyView.
Abstract In well‐studied groups of organisms, the taxonomic landscape can be very complex, with several alternative classifications describing diversity within the same set of populations. For example, three hypotheses have previously been proposed to describe the taxonomy of the common and widespread Eurasian Dusky Meadow Brown butterfly, Hyponephele ...
