A densely sampled nuclear phylogenomic analysis of the coryphoid palms (Arecaceae: Coryphoideae)
TAXON, EarlyView.Abstract The palm family (Arecaceae) has a rich history of phylogenetic research, including several recent phylogenomic studies. However, densely sampled phylogenomic datasets for larger palm clades – such as subfamilies – are still few in number. We used target sequence capture to obtain data for 971 nuclear genes across 421 (ca.

THE ANOPHELINE FAUNA OF PAPUA NEW GUINEA
Journal of the American Mosquito Control Association, 2006 Surveys for anopheline mosquitoes were conducted throughout the mainland of Papua New Guinea from 1992 to 1998 with the aim of mapping the distribution of the anopheline fauna.
