Re-Evaluating the Internal Phylogenetic Relationships of Collembola by Means of Mitogenome Data
Collembola are an ancient and early diverging lineage of basal hexapods that occur in virtually all terrestrial habitats on Earth. Phylogenetic relationships between the different orders of Collembola are fiercely debated. Despite a range of studies and the application of both morphological and gene...
