The scorpionfly genus Furcatopanorpa Ma & Hua, 2011 is a monotypic taxon of Panorpidae with a series of unique characters. However, the phylogenetic position of Furcatopanorpa in Panorpidae has not been satisfactorily resolved yet. Based on 48 complete mitochondrial genomes, we analyzed the mitochondrial phylogenomics and phylogeny of representatives of Panorpidae. The phylogenetic analyses indicate that Furcatopanorpa and Neopanorpa form a sister group relationship with high support. The chronogram of Panorpidae shows that Furcatopanorpa and Neopanorpa separated at ca. 82.07 Ma, while the species of Neopanorpa shared the most recent common ancestor at 49.07 Ma. Judged from the topology of the phylogenetic trees, it seems unsuitable to assign Furcatopanorpa into the subfamily Panorpinae, because this assignment may cause Panorpinae to be a paraphyletic group. A putative conclusion might be that Furcatopanorpa may need to be raised to subfamily status. |
