Phylogenomics resolves a 200-year-old puzzle: a revised tribal classification of Afro-Eurasian dung beetles (Coleoptera: Scarabaeinae)

This paper resolves a long-standing taxonomic issue in dung beetles by using phylogenomic data to propose a revised tribal classification for Afro-Eurasian species.

Local adaptation to climate facilitates a global invasion

The paper identifies mechanisms of local adaptation in cheatgrass invasion, showing multiple introductions and gene flow contributed to its success in North America.
