Fig. 4 in Paleotropical Diversification Dominates the Evolution of the Hyperdiverse Ant Tribe Crematogastrini (Hymenoptera: Formicidae)
Fig. 4. Diversification of Crematogastrini. We performed BAMM analyses on the chronogram resulting from the 50-best concatenated-partitioned BEAST2 analysis using clade-specific sampling probabilities to account for incomplete sampling based either on species estimates only or including species and subspecies. Panels show (A) mean phylorate plots based on species only; (B) mean phylorate plots based on species and subspecies; (C) best shift configuration based on species only; (D) best shift configuration based on species and subspecies. SuppTable 5 (online only) lists diversity estimates per genus including and excluding subspecies.Published as part of Blaimer, Bonnie B., Ward, Philip S., Schultz, Ted R., Fisher, Brian L. & Brady, Seán G., 2018, Paleotropical Diversification Dominates the Evolution of the Hyperdiverse Ant Tribe Crematogastrini (Hymenoptera: Formicidae), pp. 1-14 in Insect Systematics and Diversity (AIFB) 2 (5) on page 10, DOI: 10.1093/isd/ixy013, http://zenodo.org/record/716837

Fig. 1. Phylogeny of Crematogastrini, estimated by concatenated ML analysis.We performed best-tree and bootstrap searches (N = 100) in RAxML v8.2.7. Both panels show the best ML tree resulting from analyses of a concatenated data matrix divided per UCE locus into 1,763 partitions. (A) Phylogram showing branch lengths and emphasizing generic relationships. (B) Cladogram with BS values indicated: white squares represent 100% BS; red squares indicate the support for that node.The 10 major genus-groups are indicated; the compositions of the two genus-groups highlighted in red conflict with those resulting from the ASTRAL-II analysis presented in Fig. 2.Published as part of Blaimer, Bonnie B., Ward, Philip S., Schultz, Ted R., Fisher, Brian L. & Brady, Seán G., 2018, Paleotropical Diversification Dominates the Evolution of the Hyperdiverse Ant Tribe Crematogastrini (Hymenoptera: Formicidae), pp. 1-14 in Insect Systematics and Diversity (AIFB) 2 (5) on page 5, DOI: 10.1093/isd/ixy013, http://zenodo.org/record/716837
Fig. 8 in The Last Piece of the Puzzle? Phylogenetic Position and Natural History of the Monotypic Fungus-Farming Ant Genus Paramycetophylax (Formicidae: Attini)
Fig. 8. Time-calibrated phylogeny of the tribe Attini inferred from an MCMCTREE analysis (Yang and Rannala 1997). Red star indicates the origin of fungusfarming ants. Blue dots indicate fossil calibrations (see text). Colored boxes indicate the five agricultural systems: (i) lower agriculture (yellow); (ii) coral-fungus (Pterulaceae) agriculture (red); (iii) yeast agriculture (green); (iv) higher agriculture (blue); and (v) leaf-cutter agriculture (orange).Taxa in red correspond to anthead images on right:Cyphomyrmex costatus (top),Paramycetophylax bruchi (middle), and C. rimosus (bottom). Light blue bars indicate 95% highest probability density (HPD). K-Pg Event = Cretaceous/Paleogene boundary; EECO = Early Eocence Climatic Optimum;TEE = Terminal Eocene Event; MMCO = Middle Miocene Climatic Optimum.Published as part of Hanisch, Priscila Elena, Sosa-Calvo, Jeffrey & Schultz, Ted R., 2022, The Last Piece of the Puzzle?

Simopelta jeckylli Mann 1916
New records for S. jeckylli (Mann, 1916) Simopelta jeckylli was first recorded by Mann from Brazil, Rondônia, Madeira-Mamoré, R. R. Co. Camp 39. A second occurrence was reported in Mackay and Mackay (2008), from Ecuador (Orellana). Here we report two additional occurrences of this extremely rare species and extend its known distribution to Tailândia in the state of Pará (Brazil).

Fig. 2 in Phylogenomic Delimitation of Morphologically Cryptic Species in Globetrotting Nylanderia (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) Species Complexes
Fig. 2. Circular maximum likelihood phylogeny of Nylanderia generated in IQ-TREE 2 from the 80% complete SWSC-partitioned UCE matrix. Biogeography of terminal taxa is based on inferred native ranges and may not indicate collecting locality for known non-native species. Samples indicated with red text are globetrotting species. Nodal support is provided in SH-aLRT (Shimodaira–Hasegawa approximate likelihood ratio test) values on the left side of the node, and UFBoot (ultrafast bootstrap) values on the right side of the node. For both support values, less than 80% is considered weak support, between 80 and 94.9% is considered moderate support, and greater than or equal to 95% is considered strong support.Published as part of Williams, Jason L., Zhang, Y.Miles, LaPolla, John S., Schultz, Ted R. & Lucky, Andrea, 2022, Phylogenomic Delimitation of Morphologically Cryptic Species in Globetrotting Nylanderia (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) Species Complexes, pp. 1-15 in Insect Systematics and Diversity (AIFB) 6 (1) on page 7, DOI: 10.1093/isd/ixab027, http://zenodo.org/record/718243
