#Butterflies are merely a small, recently evolved line of day-flying #moths. Saying there are two categories of #Lepidoptera is like saying there are trees and there are maples. #Phylogeny www.amnh.org/explore/news...

Unfortunately, two very interesting social parasite species - workerless inquiline #Temnothorax #minutissimus and slavemaker T. #duloticus - seem to be missing from this study ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles... #phylogeny #ants #parasitism #SocialParasitism #workerless #inquiline #slavemaker
T. duloticus might be even closer to T. curvispinosus than T. minutissimus, but I couldn't fully resolve that. #Temnothorax #Cardiocondylini (#Formicoxenus group) #ants #phylogeny #socialparasitism

The current challenge is no longer how to get enough data, but rather how to analyse the data and how to assess the support for the inferred phylogeny www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
