TL;DR: The phylogeny of all major insect lineages reveals how and when insects diversified and provides a comprehensive reliable scaffold for future comparative analyses of evolutionary innovations among insects.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The results indicated that thrips (Thysanoptera) are the closest living relatives of true bugs and allies (Hemiptera) and that hemipteroid insects started diversifying before the Carboniferous period, over 365 million years ago.
Journal ArticleDOI
On the head morphology of Grylloblattodea (Insecta) and the systematic position of the order, with a new nomenclature for the head muscles of Dicondylia
TL;DR: The results clearly show that more data and a much broader taxon sampling are required to clarify the phylogenetic interrelationships of the lower neopteran orders, and represent a starting point for future phylogenetic analyses, with an extensive concatenated dataset.
Journal ArticleDOI
An integrative phylogenomic approach illuminates the evolutionary history of cockroaches and termites (Blattodea).

TL;DR: The first nuclear phylogenomic study of termites and cockroaches with a thorough approach to divergence time analysis, identification of endosymbionts, and reconstruction of ancestral morphological traits and behaviour shows that most subgroups of Blattodea evolved in the Cretaceous.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evolutionary history of Polyneoptera and its implications for our understanding of early winged insects.
Benjamin Wipfler,Harald Letsch,Paul B. Frandsen,Paschalia Kapli,Christoph Mayer,Daniela Bartel,Thomas R. Buckley,Alexander Donath,Janice S Edgerly-Rooks,Mari Fujita,Shanlin Liu,Ryuichiro Machida,Yuta Mashimo,Bernhard Misof,Oliver Niehuis,Ralph S.

TL;DR: The inferences suggest that the last common ancestors of Polyneoptera and of the winged insects were terrestrial throughout their lives, implying that wings did not evolve in an aquatic environment and that social behavior was not part of the polyneopteran ground plan.
