Beyond Drosophila: resolving the rapid radiation of schizophoran flies with phylotranscriptomics
BMC BIOLOGY, 19(1).
author keywords: Diptera; Phylogenomics; Transcriptomes; Drosophilidae; Tephritidae
TL;DR:
Dividing most acalyptrate fly groups into four major lineages is supported consistently across analyses, and understanding the fundamental branching patterns of schizophoran flies provides a foundation for future comparative research on the genetics, ecology, and biocontrol.

2021 journal article
Phylogenomics reveals accelerated late Cretaceous diversification of bee flies (Diptera: Bombyliidae)
CLADISTICS, 37(3), 276–297.
author keywords: Diptera; divergence times reconstruction; lower Brachycera; maximum likelihood
MeSH headings : Animals; Bees / classification; Bees / genetics; Bees / physiology; Biodiversity; Evolution, Molecular; Larva / genetics; Larva / physiology; Phylogeny; Sequence Analysis, DNA; Transcriptome
TL;DR:
The dating analyses indicate a Jurassic origin of the Bombyliidae, with the sand chamber evolving early in bee fly evolution, in the late Jurassic or mid‐Cretaceous, and it is hypothesized that the angiosperm radiation and the hothouse climate established during the late Cretaceous accelerated the diversification of bee flies.

Phylogenomic analysis of Calyptratae: resolving the phylogenetic relationships within a major radiation of Diptera
CLADISTICS, 35(6), 605–622.
TL;DR:
The phylogenomic data cannot confidently place the remaining blowfly subfamilies and compared to hypotheses from the Sanger sequencing era, many clades within the muscoid grade are congruent but now have much higher support.

Arthropods of the great indoors: characterizing diversity inside urban and suburban homes
PeerJ, 4(1), e1582.
Contributors: M. Bertone n , M. Leong*, n, T. Malow*, R. Dunn n & M. Trautwein*
author keywords: Indoor biome; Urban entomology; Entomology; Arthropod; Houses
TL;DR:
High diversity was discovered, with a conservative estimate range of 32–211 morphospecies, and 24–128 distinct arthropod families per house, and some of the most frequently found arthropods in houses are unfamiliar to the general public despite their ubiquity.

Exoskeletons and economics: indoor arthropod diversity increases in affluent neighbourhoods
Biology Letters, 12(8), 20160322.
Contributors: M. Leong*, M. Bertone n , n, R. Dunn n & M. Trautwein*
author keywords: biodiversity; socioeconomics; income; urban ecosystem; indoor biome; landscape ecology
MeSH headings : Animals; Arthropods; Cities; Ecosystem
TL;DR:
It is found that house size, surrounding vegetation, as well as mean neighbourhood income best predict the number of kinds of arthropods found indoors, showing that the luxury effect can extend to the indoor environment.

Molecular phylogeny of the horse flies: a framework for renewing tabanid taxonomy
SYSTEMATIC ENTOMOLOGY, 41(1), 56–72.
TL;DR:
A newly revised phylogenetic framework for Tabanidae forms the basis for a new assessment of tabanid diversification and provides context for understanding the evolution of trophic specialization in horse flies.

The evolution and biogeography of the austral horse fly tribe Scionini (Diptera: Tabanidae: Pangoniinae) inferred from multiple mitochondrial and nuclear genes
MOLECULAR PHYLOGENETICS AND EVOLUTION, 68(3), 516–540.
author keywords: Divergence time estimation; Gondwana; Radiation; Scaptia; Systematics; Taxonomy
MeSH headings : Animals; Biological Evolution; DNA, Mitochondrial; Diptera / classification; Diptera / genetics; Evolution, Molecular; Female; Fossils; Genes, Insect; Male; Molecular Sequence Data; Phenotype; Phylogeny; Phylogeography
TL;DR:
It is demonstrated that the Scionini are a typical Gondwanan group whose diversification was influenced by the fragmentation of that ancient land mass and most likely originated in Australia and subsequently radiated to New Zealand and South American by both long distance dispersal and vicariance.
