The classification of jumping spiders (Salticidae) is revised to bring it into accord with recent
phylogenetic work. Of the 610 recognized extant and fossil genera, 588 are placed at least …

This phylogenetic analysis of 31 exemplar taxa treats the 12 families of Araneoidea
(Anapidae, Araneidae, Cyatholipidae, Linyphiidae, Mysmenidae, Nesticidae, Pimoidae …

A method is presented for assessing whether changes in a binary character are more
concentrated than expected by chance on certain branches of a phylogenetic tree. It can be …

After the publication of his Catalogue of the Araneae in 1983, Professor Brignoli continued
with the work of cataloguing taxonomic changes and new descriptions of spiders, and a …

The paper is a review of the genus Pellenes (s. lat.) in the fauna of Central Asia and the

An updated and extensively revised checklist of the arthropods of Hispaniola (Dominican
Republic and Haiti) is presented 11 years after the publication of the original in 2008. It …

A phylogenetic analysis of five sequenced genes (28S, 16S, EF1-α, CO1, ND1) from 81
genera of jumping spiders (Salticidae) and five outgroups supports the monophyly of the …

DNA sequences from the mitochondrial (including ND1, 16S) and nuclear (EF‐1α) genomes
of about ninety‐four species were obtained to reconstruct phylogenetic relationships of …

Abstract In island systems with diverging populations, the history of island formation and
genealogical estimates of divergence dates can be mutually informative. In the “sky islands” …

Computer programs for phylogenetic analysis have been important tools in systematics and
evolutionary biology, but most have been designed primarily for the reconstruction of …
