Here we present a phylogeny of beetles (I nsecta: C oleoptera) based on DNA sequence
data from eight nuclear genes, including six single‐copy nuclear protein‐coding genes, for …

Cerambycidae is a species‐rich family of mostly wood‐feeding (xylophagous) beetles
containing nearly 35 000 known species. The higher‐level phylogeny of C erambycidae has …

Beetles that feed on the nutritionally depauperate and recalcitrant tissues provided by the
leaves, stems, and roots of living plants comprise one-quarter of herbivorous insect species …

The article discusses the existing condition of Chrysomeloidea phylogenetics with emphasis
on its years of phylogenetic systematic research. Topics discussed include the taxonomy …

Mesozoic fossils of longhorn beetles, leaf beetles and other Chrysomeloidea are extremely
rare, and little is known about the early evolutionary history of this extraordinarily diverse …

Part 2 of this work includes a review of morphological and systematic work on Histeridae
(G07, revision), Bostrichoidea (G15), Coccinelloidea (G16), Lymexyloidea+ Tenebrionoidea …

• Premise of the study: Slow‐growing understory cycads invest heavily in defenses to protect
the few leaves they produce annually. The Neotropical cycad Zamia stevensonii has …

Brood‐site pollination mutualisms represent extreme levels of reciprocal specialization
between plants and insects. Several studies have revealed intimate associations between …

Aggregations of conspecifics are ubiquitous in the biological world. In arthropods, such
aggregations are generated and regulated through complex interactions of chemical and …

The systematics of Megalopodidae is not adequately known, in spite of it being a relatively
small group of phytophagous beetles. The first phylogenetic analysis of Megalopodidae with …
