dc.description.abstract |
Egg parasitoids in the family Eulophidae (Hymenoptera) are an important part of the community of insects attacking neotropical leaf beetles in the subfamily Cassidinae. We present a phylogeny of 24 species of oophagous Eulophidae, using the 28S rDNA, the ITS2 rDNA and the cytochrome b genes, applying the NJ, MP, ML and Bayesian tree reconstruction methods on each data set. We ask whether the phylogenetic relationships of the parasitoids are linked with the life history characteristics of their beetle hosts. We show that cladogenesis in the oophagous Eulophidae does correlate with ovipositional behaviour and, to a lesser extent, diet and tribal affinities of their hosts. Additionally using two methods of simultaneous analysis of several gene sets: the Total Evidence method, and the construction of a "supertree" by Matrix Representation Parsimony (MRP), we substantiate the same major phylogenetic relationships within the Eulophidae. |
