Molecular phylogeny of the scorpionflies Panorpidae (Insecta: Mecoptera) and chromosomal evolution
Cladistics, 2018AbstractPanorpidae is the most species‐rich family in Mecoptera with ca. 470 species in the Northern Hemisphere. However, the intergeneric phylogenetic relationships of Panorpidae remain unsatisfactorily resolved to date. Here, we used molecular and cytogenetic approaches to determine the phylogenetic relationships of Panorpidae in the evolutionary ...

Major Predatory Diptera (Panorpida: Antliophora) of India
Indian Journal of EntomologyPredatory Diptera are an ecologically important group crucial to regulating prey populations and maintaining ecosystem balance. Diverse predatory families in Diptera have been documented in India, within which the Asilidae, Dolichopodidae, Empididae, Hybotidae, and a few Scathophagidae are well-represented with predatory adults.

Fine structure of the midgut of Sinopanorpa tincta (Navás) (Mecoptera: Panorpidae)
Tissue and Cell, 2014Fine structure of the midgut and degeneration of the midgut epithelium of the scorpionfly Sinopanorpa tincta (Navás) adults were investigated using light microscopy and scanning and transmission electron microscopy. The results show that the tubular midgut lacks gastric caeca and is composed of an outer longitudinal and an inner circular muscle layer ...

Mitochondrial Gene Fragments Suggest Paraphyly of the Genus Panorpa (Mecoptera, Panorpidae)
Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution, 2000Life history studies of scorpionfly species have been used to test predictions of evolutionary theory, but comparative analysis has been hampered by a lacking phylogeny of scorpionflies. We present a molecular phylogeny of selected panorpid scorpionflies inferred from mitochondrial 12S, 16S rRNA, and COI gene fragments, using parsimony and maximum ...

Furcatopanorpa, a new genus of Panorpidae (Mecoptera) from China
Journal of Natural History, 2011Furcatopanorpa, a new genus of Panorpidae in Mecoptera, is erected with Panorpa longihypovalva Hua and Cai, 2009 as its type species. It is mainly characterized by the following characters: the wings are much longer than the abdomen and are held roof-like over the abdomen at rest; the axis of the female genital plate is forked distally; the seventh and

Ultrastructure of the larval rectum of the scorpionfly Panorpa liui (Mecoptera: Panorpidae)
Arthropod Structure & DevelopmentThe rectum is an important part of the alimentary canal responsible for ion and water reabsorption of insects. However, it has rarely been studied in the larvae of Panorpidae, the largest family in Mecoptera. Here, we investigated the ultrastructure of larval rectum of the scorpionfly Panorpa liui Hua, 1997 using light and transmission electron ...

Micron, 2010
Specific genitalic morphology reflects vital sexual functions in insects and examination of genitalic structures is important in understanding copulatory mechanisms. The morphology of male and female genitalia was investigated in the scorpionfly Panorpa jilinensis using light and scanning electron microscopy.

FURTHER EVIDENCE OF PANORPIDAE IN THE AUSTRALIAN TERTIARY (INSECTA: MECOPTERA)
Australian Journal of Entomology, 1967AbstractThe hindwing of Austropanorpa australis Riek is described from the Lower Tertiary Redbank Plains Series. The assignment of the species to the Panorpidae, on venational characters, is confirmed.

Thirteen new Panorpidae (Mecoptera) from northern Burma
Insect Systematics & Evolution, 1999AbstractThirteen new species of Panorpidae are described from the collection by Dr René Malaise in the Naturhistoriska Riksmuseet, Stockholm. These are Neopanorpa malaisei, N. clavata, N. echinodes, N. fimbriata, N. pennyi, N. obscura and N. abdita (all in the malaisei species group), N. vittata, N. terminata, N. liguifascia, N. breviramus, N. similis,
