The phylogenetic system of Mantodea (Insecta: Dictyoptera)
@inproceedings{Wieland2013ThePS, title={The phylogenetic system of Mantodea (Insecta: Dictyoptera)}, author={Frank Wieland}, year={2013} }
For the first time a large morphological
dataset, comprising 152 morphological characters for 122 taxa of
all recognized families of the group, has been used to reconstruct
the phylogeny of the praying mantises (Mantodea). The intraordinal
relationships found were only partially similar to the results of
earlier molecular studies, in many cases they differed
considerably. Only a third of the families (Acanthopidae,
Empusidae, Eremiaphilidae, Thespidae, and Toxoderidae) and
subfamilies…

Complete mitochondrial genomes of four species of praying mantises (Dictyoptera, Mantidae) with ribosomal second structure, evolutionary and phylogenetic analyses
- BiologyPloS one

The phylogenetic relationships between the eight families of the Mantodea, including 35 species of praying Mantis, are tested and support the taxonomic system of Schwarz and Roy and are consistent with previous studies.

The results showed that P. borneensis was a sister clade to (Anaxarcha zhengi + Creobroter gemmata) (Hymenopodidae), and the monophyly of the family Mantidae and the genus Theopompa, Hierodula, and Rhombodera were not supported.
The systematics of Mantodea revisited: an updated classification incorporating multiple data sources (Insecta: Dictyoptera)
- BiologyAnnales de la Société entomologique de France (N.S.)

A phylogenetic framework based on male genital structure was used, supplemented by published morphological, chromosomal and molecular data to overcome past homoplasy problems, and offers the urgently needed working base for future studies in Mantodean systematics, life history and ecology.
Phylogeny of Dictyoptera: Dating the Origin of Cockroaches, Praying Mantises and Termites with Molecular Data and Controlled Fossil Evidence
- Biology, GeographyPloS one
- 2015
The authors' datings suggest that crown-Dictyoptera—and stem-mantises—would date back to the Late Carboniferous, a result compatible with the oldest putative fossil of stem-dictyopteran suborders, and suggests a scenario of replacement in carnivory among polyneopterous insects.

Gene characteristics of the complete mitochondrial genomes of Paratoxodera polyacantha and Toxodera hauseri (Mantodea: Toxoderidae)
- BiologyPeerJ
- 2018
The monophyly of Toxoderidae was supported and P. polyacantha was the sister clade to T. hauseri and S. porioni, and the size of each gene as well as the A+T-rich region and the A-T content of the whole genome were very similar among the three species.
A cryptic new species of Chlidonoptera Karsch, 1892 from the south west protected zone of the Central African Republic (Insecta, Mantodea, Hymenopodidae)

The results add to the evidence that cryptic species can be found in tropical regions, a critical issue in efforts to document global species richness, and illustrate the value of DNA barcoding, especially when coupled with traditional taxonomic tools, in disclosing hidden diversity.

The observed morphological changes between immature and adult females suggests that the selection for an alternate strategy for crypsis is a response to size increase of the abdomen during development.
