To better understand the diversity and phylogeny of Scarabaeidae, we sequenced and annotated the nearly complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of Amphimallon solstitiale (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae: Melolonthinae).

Ancient DNA reveals differences in behaviour and sociality between brown bears and extinct cave bears [PDF]
Ancient DNA studies have revolutionized the study of extinct species and populations, providing insights on phylogeny, phylogeography, admixture and demographic history. However, inferences on behaviour and sociality have been far less frequent. Here, we

Mitogenomic phylogeny of cone snails endemic to Senegal
Cone snails attain in Senegal one of their highest peaks of species diversity throughout the continental coast of Western Africa. A total of 15 endemic species have been described, all placed in the genus Lautoconus. While there is ample data regarding the morphology of the shell and the radular tooth of these species, virtually nothing is known ...

Mitogenomics and the Phylogeny of Mantis Shrimps (Crustacea: Stomatopoda) [PDF]
Stomatopoda, commonly known as mantis shrimps, are notable for their enlarged second maxillipeds encompassing the raptorial claw. The form of the claw can be used to divide them into two basic groups: smashers and spearers. Previous phylogenetic studies of Stomatopoda have focused on morphology or a few genes, though there have been whole mitochondrial

A new perspective on phylogeny and evolution of tetraodontiform fishes (Pisces: Acanthopterygii) based on whole mitochondrial genome sequences: Basal ecological diversification? [PDF]
Background The order Tetraodontiformes consists of approximately 429 species of fishes in nine families. Members of the order exhibit striking morphological diversity and radiated into various habitats such as freshwater, brackish and coastal waters ...
