Macroevolution of hoverflies (Diptera : Syrphidae): the effect of using higher-level taxa in studies of biodiversity, and correlates of species richness
We test a near-complete genus level phylogeny of hoverflies (Diptera: Syrphidae) for consistency with a null model of clade growth having uniform probabilities of speciation and extinction among contemporaneous species. The phylogeny is too unbalanced for this null model. Importantly, the degree of...
