DOI: 10.1093/aob/mcad051
Abstract: BACKGROUND AND AIMS Artemisia is a mega-diverse genus consisting of ca. 400 species. Despite its medicinal importance and ecological significance, a well-resolved phylogeny for global Artemisia, a natural generic delimitation and infrageneric taxonomy heretofore remain… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/sysbio/syz015
Abstract: Discrete morphological data have been widely used to study species evolution, but the use of quantitative (or continuous) morphological characters is less common. Here, we implement a Bayesian method to estimate species divergence times using… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/zoolinnean/zlz097
Abstract: Pseudechiniscus, the second-largest genus of the family Echiniscidae (Tardigrada: Heterotardigrada: Echiniscoidea), is notoriously difficult for taxonomic studies. In this study, I performed a morphological analysis of a new species from Croatia, based on a light… read more here.

DOI: 10.1098/rspb.2021.0044
Abstract: Fossils provide our only direct window into evolutionary events in the distant past. Incorporating them into phylogenetic hypotheses of living clades can help time-calibrate divergences, as well as elucidate macroevolutionary dynamics. However, the effect fossils… read more here.
