Mitochondrial genomes of two Australian fishflies with an evolutionary timescale of Chauliodinae

Abstract Fishflies (Corydalidae: Chauliodinae) with a total of ca. 130 extant species are one of the major groups of the holometabolous insect order Megaloptera. As a group which originated during the Mesozoic, the phylogeny and historical biogeography of fishflies are of high interest. The previous...
