Comprehensive species sampling and sophisticated algorithmic approaches refute the monophyly of Arachnida

J. A. Ballesteros, C. E. Santibanez-Lopez, C. M. Baker, L. R. Benavides, T. J. Cunha, G. Gainett, A. Z. Ontano, E. V. Setton, C. P. Arango, E. Gavish-Regev, M. S. Harvey, W. C. Wheeler, G. Hormiga, G. Giribet, P. P. Sharma

The paper uses comprehensive genomic and morphological data to challenge the accepted monophyly of Arachnida, finding horseshoe crabs nested within a paraphyletic group.

Taxonomic sampling and rare genomic changes overcome long-branch attraction in the phylogenetic placement of pseudoscorpions

A. Z. Ontano, G. Gainett, S. Aharon, J. A. Ballesteros, L. R. Benavides, K. F. Corbett, E. Gavish-Regev, M. S. Harvey, S. Monsma, C. E. Santibanez-Lopez, E. V. Setton, J. T. Zehms, J. A. Zeh, D. W. Zeh, P. P. Sharma

This study resolves pseudoscorpion phylogenetic placement by overcoming long-branch attraction through increased taxonomic sampling and genomic analysis, placing pseudoscorpions as sister to scorpions within Arachnopulmonata.
