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
Episodic radiations in the fly tree of life
Brian M. Wiegmann,Michelle D. Trautwein,Isaac S. Winkler,Norman B. Barr,Jung Wook Kim,Christine L. Lambkin,Matthew A. Bertone,Brian K. Cassel,Keith M. Bayless,Alysha M. Heimberg,Benjamin M. Wheeler,Kevin J. Peterson,Thomas Pape,Bradley J. Sinclair,Jeffrey H. Skevington,Vladimir Blagoderov,Jason Caravas,Sujatha Narayanan Kutty,Urs Schmidt-Ott,Gail E. Kampmeier,F. Christian Thompson,David A. Grimaldi,Andrew T. Beckenbach,Gregory W. Courtney,Markus Friedrich,Rudolf Meier,David K. Yeates +26 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that flies experienced three episodes of rapid radiation—lower Diptera (220 Ma), lower Brachycera (180 Ma), and Schizophora (65 Ma)—and a number of life history transitions to hematophagy, phytophagy and parasitism in the history of fly evolution over 260 million y.
Journal ArticleDOI
Birth of a biome: insights into the assembly and maintenance of the Australian arid zone biota.
Margaret Byrne,David K. Yeates,Leo Joseph,Michael R. Kearney,J. M. Bowler,Martin Williams,S. J. B. Cooper,Stephen C. Donnellan,J. S. Keogh,Remko Leys,Jane Melville,Daniel J. Murphy,Nicholas Porch,Karl-Heinz Wyrwoll +13 more
TL;DR: This review highlights the opportunities that development of arid conditions provides for rapid and diverse evolutionary radiations, and re-enforces the emerging view that Pleistocene environmental change can have diverse impacts on genetic structure and diversity in different biomes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Invasive phytophagous pests arising through a recent tropical evolutionary radiation: the Bactrocera dorsalis complex of fruit flies.
Anthony R. Clarke,Karen F. Armstrong,Amy E Carmichael,John R Milne,S. Raghu,George K. Roderick,David K. Yeates +6 more
TL;DR: The Bactrocera dorsalis complex of tropical fruit flies contains 75 described species, largely endemic to Southeast Asia, and development of a phylogeny of the group is considered a high priority to provide a framework for future evolutionary and ecological studies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Decline of a biome: Evolution, contraction, fragmentation, extinction and invasion of the Australian mesic zone biota
Margaret Byrne,Dorothy A. Steane,Leo Joseph,David K. Yeates,Gregory J. Jordan,Darren M. Crayn,Ken Aplin,David J. Cantrill,Lynette Gai Cook,Michael D. Crisp,J. Scott Keogh,Jane Melville,Craig Moritz,Nicholas Porch,J. M. Kale Sniderman,Paul Sunnucks,Peter H. Weston +16 more
TL;DR: The aims are to review and refine key hypotheses derived from palaeoclimatic data and the fossil record that are critical to understanding the evolution of the Australian mesic biota and examine predictions arising from these hypotheses using available molecular phylogenetic and phylogeographical data.
