Patterns of morphological simplification and innovation in the megadiverse Holometabola (Insecta)
Cladistics, Volume 38, Issue 2, Page 227-245, April 2022., 2022 Abstract We analyzed patterns of complexity and simplicity in holometabolan insects using parsimony and maximum‐likelihood. By contrast with other groups of arthropods (and most other groups of animals), insects have undergone a stepwise process of structural simplification in their evolution.

Arthropod dark taxa provide new insights into diversity responses to bark beetle infestations
Ecological Applications, Volume 32, Issue 2, March 2022., 2022 Abstract Natural disturbances are increasing around the globe, also impacting protected areas. Although previous studies have indicated that natural disturbances result in mainly positive effects on biodiversity, these analyses mostly focused on a few well established taxonomic groups, and thus uncertainty remains regarding the comprehensive impact of ...

Phylogeny and biogeography of the unique snakefly genus Alena Navás, 1916 (Raphidioptera: Raphidiidae) [PDF]
Arthropod Systematics & Phylogeny, 2022 The genus Alena Navás, 1916, is considered the most distinct genus of Raphidiidae, because of the uncommon shape of its male genital sclerites and its geographic distribution restricted to the southwestern U.S.A. and western Mexico.

Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 22, Issue 2, Page 755-767, February 2022., 2022 Abstract Many lacewing species (Insecta: Neuroptera) are important predators of pests with great potential in biological control. So far, there is no chromosome‐level published genome available for Neuroptera. Here we report a high‐quality chromosome‐level reference genome for a green lacewing species Chrysopa pallens (Neuroptera: Chrysopidae), which ...
