A unique box in 28S rRNA is shared by the enigmatic insect order Zoraptera and Dictyoptera.
The position of the Zoraptera remains one of the most challenging and uncertain concerns in ordinal-level phylogenies of the insects. Zoraptera have been viewed as having a close relationship with five different groups of Polyneoptera, or as being allied to the Paraneoptera or even Holometabola. Alt...

The position of the Zoraptera remains one of the most challenging and uncertain concerns in ordinal-level phylogenies of the insects.
