The beetle tree of life reveals that Coleoptera survived end‐Permian mass extinction to diversify during the Cretaceous terrestrial revolution (2015, background): “…earlier studies based on morphology [e.g. Hansen, 1991 (preferred cladogram); Beutel & Komarek, 2004], and the clade Georissidae+Helophoridae [part of the helophorid lineage of Hansen (1991)] is in agreement with results from a recent molecular study of Hydrophiloidea s.s. (Short & Fikácěk, 2013).”
Phylogeny and evolution of Staphyliniformia and Scarabaeiformia: forest litter as a stepping stone for diversification of nonphytophagous beetles (2015, background): “Although our results for the early-divergent hydrophiloids differed, our results within Hydrophilidae s.s. were almost entirely consistent with the results of Short & Fikáček (2013) based on more taxa and genes.”
