Using a fossilized birth–death model, a new phylogeny of the superfamily Evanioidea
(including ensign wasps, nightshade wasps and hatchet wasps) is proposed, with estimates …

The recent advances in sequencing technologies, phylogenomics and divergence dating
methods call for an integrative review of the current state of Hymenoptera systematics. We …

Insects have evolved complex sensory systems that are important for feeding, defence and
reproduction. Parasitoid wasps often spend much time and effort in searching for concealed …

The wasp genus† Holopsenella, described originally from Lebanese amber, is recorded for
the first time from mid-Cretaceous Burmese amber. We describe three new species,† H …

A new fossil praeaulacid wasp, Hadraulacus perrarus Li, Shih and Ren gen. et sp. nov., is

Abstract The Cretaceous family Spathiopterygidae (Hymenoptera: Diaprioidea), containing
five species in four genera, showed a wide distribution from the upper Barremian to the …

The family Stephanidae (Hymenoptera) constitutes a unique group within the Apocrita,
playing a pivotal role in the evolution of parasitoid wasps. Although the phylogeny of …

In the present work, we describe a new fossil family of Apoidea supported by phylogenetic
analyses involving both fossil and extant groups.† Burmasphecidae fam. n. is based on† …
