The beetle tree of life reveals that C oleoptera survived end‐P ermian mass extinction to diversify during the C retaceous terrestrial revolution

DD Mckenna, AL Wild, K Kanda… - Systematic …, 2015 - Wiley Online Library

Phylogenomics resolves the timing and pattern of insect evolution

B Misof, S Liu, K Meusemann, RS Peters, A Donath… - Science, 2014 - science.org

A total-evidence approach to dating with fossils, applied to the early radiation of the Hymenoptera

F Ronquist, S Klopfstein, L Vilhelmsen… - Systematic …, 2012 - academic.oup.com
Phylogenies are usually dated by calibrating interior nodes against the fossil record. This
relies on indirect methods that, in the worst case, misrepresent the fossil information. Here …
