Evolutionary history of Coleoptera revealed by extensive sampling of genes and species
- BiologyNature Communications
- 2017
A time-calibrated phylogeny for Coleoptera is infer based on 95 protein-coding genes in 373 beetle species and an association between the hyperdiversification of beetles and the rise of angiosperms is suggested.
A comprehensive phylogeny of flat bark beetles (Coleoptera: Cucujidae) with a revised classification and a new South American genus
- Biology
- 2020
Both morphological and molecular analyses supported the monophyly of the four established genera: Cucujus Fabricius, Pediacus Shuckard, Palaestes Perty, and Platisus Erichson and led to the description of a new genus, Thesaurus, from South America.

Evolution of lacewings and allied orders using anchored phylogenomics (Neuroptera, Megaloptera, Raphidioptera)

Analysis of anchored hybrid enrichment (AHE) data under a variety of analytical parameters recovered a well‐resolved and strongly supported tree for the higher phylogeny of Neuropterida that is highly concordant with previous estimates based on DNA sequence data.
Higher‐level phylogeny of longhorn beetles (Coleoptera: Chrysomeloidea) inferred from mitochondrial genomes
- Biology
- 2020
The phylogeny of Chrysomeloidea with a focus on Cerambycidae and allied families was explored, revealing that Chrysomelidae (leaf beetles) are sister to all other chrysomeloid families and the diversification of families within Chrysomeliad was largely coincident with the radiation of angiosperms during the Early Cretaceous.
The Mitochondrial Genome of Amara aulica (Coleoptera, Carabidae, Harpalinae) and Insights into the Phylogeny of Ground Beetles
- BiologyGenes
- 2020
A nearly complete mitogenome of Amara aulica (Carabidae), using a next-generation sequencing method, showed that the family Carabidae was a non-monophyletic assemblage and the subfamilies Cicindelinae, Elaphrinae, Carabinee, Trechinae and Harpalinae were recovered as monophyletics groups.
Phylogeny and Systematics of Wood-Degrading Neotro- pical Bess Beetles (Coleoptera: Passalidae: Passalinae)
- Biology
- 2020
To test the monophyly of Proculini and Passalini and reconstruct relationships among the New World genera, DNA sequences from three genes along with data from 57 morphological characters were used and phylogenetic results and analyses of morphological data were analyzed.

- 2021
The first phylogenetic analysis of Megalopodidae with a comprehensive generic representation is undertaken, and new delimitations of the polyphyletic genera Poecilomorpha and Macrolopha are proposed, Clythraxeloma is resurrected, and the subgenera of Agathomers are suppressed.
Molecular Phylogeny, Diversity and Zoogeography of Net-Winged Beetles (Coleoptera: Lycidae)

The lycid phylogeny shows that poor dispersers can be used for reconstruction of dispersal and vicariance history over a long time-span, but the current data are insufficient for reconstructing of the early phase of their diversification.

Data indicate a paraphyletic Erotylidae and Languriidae, which has experienced at least one evolutionary transition from mycophagy to phytophagy, three transitions from Aphyllophorales hosts to Euagarics, and one transition from EUagarics hosts to Mucorales.
Higher Level Phylogeny of Curculionidae (Coleoptera: Curculionoidea) based mainly on Larval Characters, with Special Reference to Broad‐Nosed Weevils
- Biology

The hypothesis of monophyly of broad‐nosed weevils is not accepted; the Entiminae are justified as monophyletic and their natural classification into tribes is proposed and the phylogenetic position and relationships of higher taxa of Curculionidae are discussed.

Chrysomelid beetles likely radiated long after the origin of their host lineages and their diversification was driven by repeated radiaton on a pre-existing diverse resource, rather than ancient host associations.

The phylogenetic relationships within Hydrophiloidea have been a matter of controversial discussion for many years and the supposedly repeated changes between aquatic and terrestrial lifestyles are not well understood, so an extensive molecular data set comprising sequences from six nuclear and mitochondrial genes is used.
