Phylogenomic analysis of Calyptratae: resolving the phylogenetic relationships within a major radiation of Diptera
The Calyptratae, one of the most species‐rich fly clades, only originated and diversified after
the Cretaceous–Palaeogene extinction event and yet exhibit high species diversity and a …

Phylogenomic analysis of Tachinidae (Diptera: Calyptratae: Oestroidea): a transcriptomic approach to understanding the subfamily relationships
Tachinidae is the second most species‐rich family of Diptera. It comprises four subfamilies,
and all of its members have parasitoid habits. We present the first phylogenomic analysis of …
