Journal ArticleDOI
A Total-Evidence Approach to Dating with Fossils, Applied to the Early Radiation of the Hymenoptera
Fredrik Ronquist,Seraina Klopfstein,Lars Vilhelmsen,Susanne Schulmeister,Debra Murray,Alexandr P. Rasnitsyn +5 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that the crown group dates back to the Carboniferous, ∼309 Ma (95% interval: 291--347 Ma), and diversified into major extant lineages much earlier than previously thought, well before the Triassic.
Journal ArticleDOI
Phylogenetic relationships among superfamilies of Hymenoptera
Michael J. Sharkey,James M. Carpenter,Lars Vilhelmsen,John M. Heraty,Johan Liljeblad,Ashley P. G. Dowling,Susanne Schulmeister,Debra Murray,Andrew R. Deans,Fredrik Ronquist,Lars Krogmann,Ward C. Wheeler +11 more
TL;DR: The first comprehensive analysis of higher‐level phylogeny of the order Hymenoptera is presented and all currently recognized superfamilies are supported as monophyletic.
Journal ArticleDOI
Morphological and molecular evidence converge upon a robust phylogeny of the megadiverse Holometabola
Rolf G. Beutel,Frank Friedrich,Thomas Hörnschemeyer,Hans Pohl,Frank Hünefeld,Felix Beckmann,Rudolf Meier,Bernhard Misof,Michael F. Whiting,Lars Vilhelmsen +9 more
TL;DR: It is argued that even in the “age of phylogenomics”, comparative morphology will still play a vital role and is essential for reconstructing major evolutionary transformations at the phenotypic level, for testing evolutionary scenarios, and for placing fossil taxa.
Journal ArticleDOI
Skeletomusculature of Scelionidae (Hymenoptera: Platygastroidea): head and mesosoma
TL;DR: The skeletomusculature of the head and mesosoma of the parasitoid wasp family Scelionidae is reviewed, and the variability of the muscle and corresponding skeletal structures within the family is described.
Journal ArticleDOI
Phylogeny and classification of the extant basal lineages of the Hymenoptera (Insecta)
TL;DR: The phylogeny of the basal hymenopteran lineages, including representatives of all «symphytan» families, is analysed and it is proposed to elevate the Anaxyelidae and the Xiphydriida both to superfamily status.
