Tracing the evolution of Lathrobium: A phylogenomic approach using museum specimens
Editorial summary
Tokareva, Hansen and Żyła reconstruct the evolutionary history of Lathrobium using ultraconserved elements from recent and museum specimens. Their results indicate non-monophyly in the current genus concept, repeated wing and eye reduction, a Palaeogene origin and primarily Palaearctic biogeographic origins.
