Gender-Segmented Labor Markets and Foreign Demand Shocks [PDF]

Systematic Entomology, EarlyView.Using genomic data from 285 species across 19 planthopper families, we conducted the first phylogenomic study targeting global planthoppers and inferred their phylogeny with the highest resolution so far. We proposed taxonomic changes including the establishment of a new family Borysthenidae stat. rev. and a new superfamily Meenoploidea superfam.
