(2017, background): “The results from testing major phylogenetic hypotheses (i. e., Eusymphyta as the sister group of Unicalcarida, Cephoidea are the sister group of Vespina, Trigonaloidea are the sister group of Aculeata, Stephanoidea are the sister group of Evanioidea, Formicidae are the sister group of Apoidea) via F”
- Identifying the sister group to the bees: a molecular phylogeny of Aculeata with an emphasis on the superfamily Apoidea (2012, methodology): “These results also provide additional support for the superfamily classification proposed by Pilgrim et al. (2008).”
- 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): “To ascertain specificity of characters provided in the diagnosis of the Formicidae (below), representatives of all major aculeate lineages, and some “Parasitica” and “Symphyta”, were examined. the higher classification of the Aculeata follows Pilgrim et al. (2008).”
- Simultaneous analysis and the origin of eusociality in the Vespidae (Insecta: Hymenoptera) (2010, background): “…is an absurd result – vespids and apids are traditionally placed in different superfamilies, and are not at all closely related, with their separation supported both by abundant morphological data (BROTHERS 1975; BROTHERS & CARPENTER 1993; BROTHERS 1999) and molecular data (PILGRIM et al. 2008).”
