The origin and early radiation of winged insects (Pterygota) represent one of the most transformative events in terrestrial evolution, yet phylogenetic relationships among their basalmost lineages (Ephemeroptera, Odonata and Neoptera) continue to be a central debate within insect systematics. Here, we present the most...

Tests showed that AI‐assisted illustration could become a useful workflow for insect illustration in future taxonomic studies, and the morphological accuracy and stylistic standardization of the outputs were sufficient for practical use in scientific publications after expert review under a human‐supervised workflow.
MsaTM-DB is presented, a curated database comprising 965,545 loci from 420 eukaryotic phylogenomic studies, each annotated with 35 features spanning alignment properties, substitution parameters, and gene tree metrics that enable systematic investigation of heterogeneity in phylogenetic signals across diverse evolution...
