Is Ellipura monophyletic? A combined analysis of basal hexapod relationships with emphasis on the origin of insects (2004, methodology): “This followed Kristensen’s (1998) reassessment of the position of Tricholepidion, which concluded that Zygentoma (including Tricholepidion) is monophyletic based on (1) the presence of a widened apical segment of the labial palp; (2) obliteration of the superlingua; and (3) sperm conjugation (Wygodz”
Bumblebees as model organisms to study male sexual selection in social insects (2003, unknown): “Sperm morphology is variable among social insects and this variation has mainly been used for taxonomic purposes (Jamieson 1987; Jamieson et al. 1999; Newman and Quicke 2000; Lino Neto and Dolder 2002).”
Insect morphology in the age of phylogenomics: innovative techniques and its future role in systematics (2014, background): “The introduction of TEM and SEM doubtlessly revolutionized investigations on the cellular level and of surface structures, respectively, and both techniques have contributed to the exploration of new character systems (e.g. spermatozoan ultrastructure, Dallai & Afzelius 1984; Jamieson et al. 1999).”
Monophyletic Polyneoptera recovered by wing base structure (2011, background): “Furthermore, the validity of Polyneoptera is also a long debated problem (Boudreaux, 1979; Hennig, 1981; Kristensen, 1991; Kukalová-Peck, 1991; Jamieson et al., 1999; Haas & Kukalová-Peck, 2001; Grimaldi & Engel, 2005; Gullan & Cranston, 2010), and morphological studies have not provided…”
A molecular phylogenetic study of armoured scale insects (Hemiptera: Diaspididae) (2005, background): “…# 2006 The Royal Entomological Society embryos, with genomes from maternal polar bodies present in some cells (Brown, 1965; Normark, 2004); and sperm lack mitochondria and have dozens or hundreds of microtubules, unlike the sperm of almost any other metazoan (Robison, 1990; Jamieson et al., 1999).”
