- The study focuses on two hoverfly species, Episyrphus balteatus and Eupeodes corollae, which are significant natural predators of aphids and analyzed their mitochondrial genomes.
- The mitochondrial genome of Episyrphus is 16,175 bp long, and Eupeodes is 15,326 bp long, both containing all 37 typical genes arranged in ancestral positions.
- Phylogenetic analysis using these mitochondrial sequences revealed the monophyly of five Syrphidae species and positioned Platypezoidea as the sister group to other Muscomorpha, showcasing the utility of mitochondrial genomes in evolutionary studies.
