Phylogenetic Systematics
Since the advent of the theory of evolutio n, o ne of the tasks of biology has bee n to i nvestigate the phyloge netic relatio nship betwee n species. This task is especially impor ta nt because all of the differe nces which exist betwee n species, whether i n morphology, physiology , or ecology, i n ways of behavior, or even i n geographical distributio n, have evolved , like the species thems...
متن کاملCombined molecular phylogenetic analysis of the Orthoptera (Arthropoda, Insecta) and implications for their higher systematics.
A phylogenetic analysis of mitochondrial and nuclear rDNA sequences from species of all the superfamilies of the insect order Orthoptera (grasshoppers, crickets, and relatives) confirmed that although mitochondrial sequences provided good resolution of the youngest superfamilies, nuclear rDNA sequences were necessary to separate the basal groups. To try to reconcile these data sets into a singl...
متن کاملMolecular systematics of Goniodidae (Insecta: Phthiraptera).
The higher level phylogenetic relationships within the avian feather lice (Insecta: Phthiraptera: Ischnocera) are extremely problematic. Here we investigate the relationships of 1 family (Goniodidae), sometimes recognized as distinct within Ischnocera, using parsimony and likelihood analyses of nuclear and mitochondrial DNA sequences. These data support monophyly for a restricted definition of ...
متن کاملThe Extinct Order Caloneurodea Insecta: Pterygota: Panorthoptera: Wing Venation, Systematics and Phylogenetic Relationships
— A new interpretation of the wing venation of the fossil insect order Caloneurodea is proposed. Complex fusions of veins are demonstrated, supporting the assignment of the Caloneurodea to the Panorthoptera, i.e. the order is closely related to the Orthoptera. A new diagnosis of the order is proposed. The following taxa are re-described after new interpretation, material or preparation, or are ...
متن کاملOntogeny and Phylogenetic Systematics
Dedifferentiation, paedomorphosis, and the insertion and deletion of developmental stages make it impossible to deduce the genealogical hierarchy frum only ontogenetic transformation series. Like the outgroup criterion, ontogenetic character precedence is not theory-neutral and to use it to deduce genealogy requires certain assumptions. If scientists are going to use logically unbeatable theori...
