  • Converging on the orb: denser taxon sampling elucidates spider phylogeny and new analytical methods support repeated evolution of the orb web 
    Kallal, Robert J.; Kulkarni, Siddharth S.; Dimitrov, Dimitar; Benavides, Ligia R.; Arnedo, Miquel A.; Giribet, Gonzalo; Hormiga, Gustavo (2020)
    High throughput sequencing and phylogenomic analyses focusing on relationships among spiders have both reinforced and upturned long-standing hypotheses. Likewise, the evolution of spider webs-perhaps their most emblematic ...
  • Family ties: molecular phylogeny of crab spiders (Araneae : Thomisidae) 
    Benjamin, Suresh P.; Dimitrov, Dimitar; Gillespie, Rosemary G.; Hormiga, Gustavo (2008)
    The first quantitative phylogenetic analysis of three sequenced genes (16S rRNA, cytochrome c oxidase subunit I, histone 3) of 25 genera of crab spiders and 11 outgroups supports the monophyly of Thomisidae. Four lineages ...
  • Interrogating Genomic-Scale Data to Resolve Recalcitrant Nodes in the Spider Tree of Life 
    Kulkarni, Siddharth; Kallal, Robert J.; Wood, Hannah; Dimitrov, Dimitar; Giribet, Gonzalo; Hormiga, Gustavo (2020)
    Genome-scale data sets are converging on robust, stable phylogenetic hypotheses for many lineages; however, some nodes have shown disagreement across classes of data. We use spiders (Araneae) as a system to identify the ...
  • Phylogeny of the orb-weaving spider family Araneidae (Araneae: Araneoidea) 
    Scharff, Nikolaj; Coddington, Jonathan A.; Blackledge, Todd A.; Agnarsson, Ingi; Framenau, Volker W.; Szuts, Tamás; Hayashi, Cheryl Y.; Dimitrov, Dimitar (2020)
    We present a new phylogeny of the spider family Araneidae based on five genes (28S, 18S, COI, H3 and 16S) for 158 taxa, identified and mainly sequenced by us. This includes 25 outgroups and 133 araneid ingroups representing ...
  • Response to Comment on An Update of Wallace s Zoogeographic Regions of the World 
    Holt, Ben G.; Lessard, Jean-Philippe; Borregaard, Michael K.; Fritz, Susanne A.; Araújo, Miguel B.; Dimitrov, Dimitar; Fabre, Pierre-Henri; Graham, Catherine H.; Graves, Gary R.; Jønsson, Knud A.; Nogués-Bravo, David; Wang, Zhiheng; Whittaker, Robert J.; Fjeldså, Jon; Rahbek, Carsten (2013)
    Kreft and Jetz s critique of our recent update of Wallace s zoogeographical regions disregards the extensive sensitivity analyses we undertook, which demonstrate the robustness of our results to the choice of phylogenetic ...
  • The spider tree of life: phylogeny of Araneae based on target-gene analyses from an extensive taxon sampling 
    Wheeler, Ward C.; Coddington, Jonathan A.; Crowley, Louise M.; Dimitrov, Dimitar; Goloboff, Pablo A.; Griswold, Charles E.; Hormiga, Gustavo; Prendini, Lorenzo; Ramírez, Martín J.; Sierwald, Petra; Almeida-Silva, Lina; Alvarez-Padilla, Fernando; Arnedo, Miquel A.; Benavides Silva, Ligia R.; Benjamin, Suresh P.; Bond, Jason E.; Grismado, Cristian J.; Hasan, Emile; Hedin, Marshal; Izquierdo, Matías A.; Labarque, Facundo M.; Ledford, Joel; Lopardo, Lara; Maddison, Wayne P.; Miller, Jeremy A.; Piacentini, Luis N.; Platnick, Norman I.; Polotow, Daniele; Silva-Dávila, Diana; Scharff, Nikolaj; Szuts, Tamás; Ubick, Darrell; Vink, Cor J.; Wood, Hannah M.; Zhang, Junxia (2017)
    We present a phylogenetic analysis of spiders using a dataset of 932 spider species, representing 115 families (only the family Synaphridae is unrepresented), 700 known genera, and additional representatives of 26 unidentified ...
  • An Update of Wallace's Zoogeographic Regions of the World 
    Holt, Ben G.; Lessard, Jean-Philippe; Borregaard, Michael K.; Fritz, Susanne A.; Araujo, Miguel B.; Dimitrov, Dimitar; Fabre, Pierre-Henri; Graham, Catherine H.; Graves, Gary R.; Jonsson, Knud A.; Nogues-Bravo, David; Wang, Zhiheng; Whittaker, Robert J.; Fjeldsa, Jon; Rahbek, Carsten (2013)
    Modern attempts to produce biogeographic maps focus on the distribution of species, and the maps are typically drawn without phylogenetic considerations. Here, we generate a global map of zoogeographic regions by combining ...
