Abstract excerpt
Subfamily to generic level relationships among the Opiinae and Alysiinae (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) were investigated using DNA sequence data from c. 400 bp fragments of the cytochrome b, 16S rRNA and 28S D2 rRNA genes. The best recovery of morphologically-defined groups was achieved by 28S D2, followed by 16S with cytochrome b being very uninformative. We suggest ribosomal expansion regions may prove useful for...
