Seasonality, the latitudinal gradient of diversity, and Eocene insects (2010, background): “…saw dramatic radiations in insect groups such as ants, bees, and other derived apocritan Hymenoptera; ditrysian Lepidoptera; brachyceran Diptera; phytophagous Coleoptera; and others (Farrell 1998; Dlussky and Rasnitsyn 2003; Rasnitsyn and Quicke 2002; Grimaldi and Engel 2005; Moreau et al. 2006).”
Morphological patterns and community organization in leaf-litter ant assemblages (2010, background): “Recent phylogenetic studies (Brady et al. 2006, Moreau et al. 2006) on ants have focused on a very different set of taxa than the one used here, hampering their use as taxonomic distance guides.”
Higher‐level phylogeny and evolutionary history of Pentatomomorpha (Hemiptera: Heteroptera) inferred from mitochondrial genome sequences (2019, background): “, 2012), similar to many phytophagous insect groups (Grimaldi, 1999; Moreau et al., 2006; Hunt et al., 2007).”
Predicting the past distribution of species climatic niches. (2009, background): “The further we travel back in time, the larger the potential impact of this assumption on our results would be. There are recent studies with large phylogenetic time trees for mammals (Bininda-Emonds et al., 2007), birds (Hackett et al., 2008), amphibians (Roelants et al., 2007; Vieites et al., 2007”
Contributions to the knowledge of Formicidae (Hymenoptera, Aculeata): a new diagnosis of the family, the first global male-based key to subfamilies, and a treatment of early branching lineages (2015, background): “While the relationships within the formicoid clade (dorylinae, myrmeciomorphs, dolichoderomorphs, Formicinae, ectaheteromorphs, Myrmicinae) have crystallized in the past decade (Moreau et al. 2006; Brady et al. 2006, 2014; Ward et al. 2015), the relationships of the “poneroids” (Agroecomyrmecinae, A”
A Total-Evidence Approach to Dating with Fossils, Applied to the Early Radiation of the Hymenoptera (2012, background): “Other hymenopteran dating studies suggest that ants are at least 140 myr (Moreau 2011; Moreau et al. 2006) and bees at least 125 myr old (Danforth et al.”
Rainforest Canopy Ants: The Implications of Territoriality and Predatory Behavior (2007, background): “The phylogeny of the family is clearly separated into three clades divided into 19 subfamilies (14 of them are strongly monophyletic; three others are monotypic; and the remaining two, the Amblyoponinae and especially the Cerapachyinae, are paraphyletic) (Fig. 1; Moreau et al. 2006).”
