The field of phylogenetics is on the cusp of a major revolution, enabled by new methods of data collection that leverage both genomic resources and recent advances in DNA sequencing. Previous phylogen
Insects are one of the most species-rich groups of metazoan organisms. They play a pivotal role in most non-marine ecosystems and many insect species are of enormous economical and medical importance.
Bayesian phylogenetic reconstruction of Dipsadidae (287 species), with outgroups (57 species). This tree was used to estimate the ancestral range of Dipsadidae and its historical biogeography througho
Loci for which no corresponding sequence data had been previously published for the taxon concerned are emboldened. Populations (Code) previously unknown in phylogentic studies are also shown in bold.
