The evolution of aposematism and mimicry in soft-bodied beetles of the superfamily Cleroidea (Insecta)

Original language description

Checkered beetles, soft-winged flower beetles and their allies (superfamily Cleroidea) exhibit well-known aposematic color patterns, particularly in the family Cleridae, which participate in mimicry complexes mostly with unpalatable beetles, ants and velvet ants representing a Müllerian-Batesian continuum. Many cleroids also exhibit attenuated hardening of cuticular layers resulting in a soft-bodied appearance. Here, a molecular phylogenetic analysis of the entire Cleroidea was performed using sequencesof two nuclear and two mitochondrial loci of ~4 kb total length. Inferred phylogenies were used to reconstruct ancestral color patterns and involvement in mimicry complexes. The hypothesis of a soft-bodied ancestor of Cleridae and allies was tested.
