“…The screening of mitochondrial genetic variation reveals 24 haplotypes from a sample of 395 sequences (Table 1). We also included sequences obtained by Mander et al (2003) (n = 6) from samples collected in Australia, Chile, Hawaii, and New Zealand, kindly provided by Dr Craig Phillips (Table 1).…”

Previous research revealed complex diversification patterns in the parthenogenetic weevil Naupactus cervinus. To understand the origin of clonal diversity and successful spreading of this weevil, we investigated its geographic origin and possible dispersal routes and whether parthenogens can persist in habitats under unsuitable environmental conditions. This study is based on samples taken throughout a broad area of the species’ range. We used both mitochondrial and nuclear markers and applied phylogenetic and network analyses to infer possible relationships between haplotypes. Bayesian phylogeographic analyses and ecological niche modeling were used to investigate the processes that shaped genetic diversity and enabled the colonization of new geographic areas. Southeastern Brazil emerges as the original distribution area of N. cervinus. We detected two range expansions, one along natural corridors during the Pleistocene and the other in countries outside South America during recent times. Isolation due to climate shifts during the early Pleistocene led to diversification in two divergent clades, which probably survived in different refugia of the Paranaense Forest and the Paraná River delta. The origin of the clonal diversity was probably a complex process including mutational diversification, hybridization, and secondary colonization. The establishment of N. cervinus in areas outside its native range may indicate adaptation to drier and cooler conditions. Parthenogenesis would be advantageous for the colonization of new environments by preventing the breakup of successful gene combinations. As in other insect pests, the present distribution of N. cervinus results from both its evolutionary history and its recent history related to human activities.

“…The morphological features of E. nassaui were considered insufficient for such a task (Nauman 1989), whereas molecular tools have proven useful in detecting subtle population differences in insects (e.g. Scheffer & Lewis 2001;Mander et al 2003). Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) was considered suitable because it is maternally inherited and does not undergo recombination.…”

“…Apomitic parthenogenesis is very common in broad‐nosed weevils of the subfamily Entiminae, and its occurrence has been confirmed in over 60 species from several tribes (Tomiuk and Loeschcke, 1992; Saura et al., 1993; Lanteri and Normark, 1995; Normark, 1996b). This kind of reproduction has been demonstrated by cytogenetic studies and/or by rearing, for three species studied herein: G. leucoloma , A. tessellatus and A. cervinus (Normark, 1996b; Hardwick et al., 1997; Mander et al., 2003), but it is suspected for several other species and/or lineages of the P‐N. complex (Lanteri and Normark, 1995).…”

“…Naupactus is usually associated with environments having trees and shrubs, where the adults feed on leaves and other green parts of the plants, whereas Pantomorus species are mostly distributed in steppes and prairies, feeding on grasses (Lanteri et al., 2002a,b). Some of the latter are apomictic parthenogenetic, and have been introduced into other continents besides South America, becoming serious pests of agriculture (Lanteri and Normark, 1995; Hardwick et al., 1997; Normark and Lanteri, 1998; Mander et al., 2003).…”

Phylogeny of the Pantomorus–Naupactus complex based on morphological and molecular data (Coleoptera: Curculionidae)

The Pantomorus-Naupactus complex is a Neotropical group of broad-nosed weevils (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) including several parthenogenetic species usually assigned to the genera Naupactus Dejean, Pantomorus Schoenherr, Asynonychus Crotch, Aramigus Horn, Eurymetopus Schoenherr and Graphognathus Buchanan. Sixteen species were studied to test hypotheses on the monophyly of these genera, and on the origin of the parthenogenetic lineages. A matrix of 30 morphological characters and 999 positions of the Cytochrome Oxidase I gene, was analyzed with separate partitions and simultaneously, under equal and implied weights, and with different transversion ⁄ transitions costs. The ILD test indicates that the incongruence between the molecular and morphological data is not significant. Under equal weights, the molecular data resulted in a single tree and morphology in 34 trees; under implied weights morphology gave a different tree, and under TV:TS ‡ 4:1 molecular and combined analyses resulted in the same optimal tree. According to the latter, Naupactus includes Graphognathus, and is thus paraphyletic and basal regarding remaining genera, Pantomorus is polyphyletic and includes Aramigus and Asynonychus, and Eurymetopus is monophyletic. The species in which apomictic parthenogenesis has been verified (Aramigus tessellatus, Asynonychus cervinus and Graphognathus lecuoloma), belong to different clades of the Pantomorus-Naupactus complex, with basal sexual relatives.Ó The Willi Hennig Society 2005.The genera Pantomorus Schoenherr and Naupactus Dejean (Curculionidae: Entiminae: Naupactini) are naturally distributed in the Neotropical Region, having their highest diversity in the tropical and subtropical areas of South America (Lanteri and O' Brien, 1990;Lanteri and Morrone, 1995). Naupactus is usually associated with environments having trees and shrubs, where the adults feed on leaves and other green parts of the plants, whereas Pantomorus species are mostly distributed in steppes and prairies, feeding on grasses (Lanteri et al., 2002a,b). Some of the latter are apomictic parthenogenetic, and have been introduced into other continents besides South America, becoming serious pests of agriculture (Lanteri and Normark, 1995;Hardwick et al., 1997;Normark and Lanteri, 1998;Mander et al., 2003).The majority of the species traditionally classified in Naupactus have well-developed elytral humeri and metathoracic wings, whereas in Pantomorus the humeri are reduced or absent, and the membranous wings are vestigial. Buchanan (1939) coined the term Pantomorus-Naupactus complex (P-N complex) and stated that ''until all species can be critically studied the wing and humeral characters must be used for dividing these two vaguely defined genera''. Morrone (1995), andNormark (1995) proposed that Naupactus is probably paraphyletic and Pantomorus an artificial genus, including several independent lineages associated with similar environments, that might have evolved from different groups of Naupactus.
