Using the mitochondrial barcoding region to correlate research with 58 species in 19 genera of the family Laelapidae with the aim of determining the origin, phylogenetic relationships, and biogeographic historical distribution characteristics of mites in the family Laelapidae. Phylogenetic trees were obtained using Bayesian inference (BI) and Maximum-likelihood (ML) methods, based on three fossil records calibrated as molecular clock nodes, to estimate the divergence time of mites in the family Laelapidae as well as to apply Dispersal-Extinction-Cladogenesis (DEC) analyses to obtain biogeographic history inferences. The result showed species of the genera Hyperlaelaps and Haemolaelaps and some species of the genus Androlaelaps in the family Laelapidae were divided into clades of the genus Laelaps in both the BI and ML trees. Divergence time estimates and biogeographic history analysis revealed that the family Laelapidae likely diverged from other taxa during the Middle Jurassic (ca. 156.73 Mya), with Asia considered the most likely ancestral region for the family Laelapidae. Species of various genera began to undergo massive diversification events during the Cenozoic Tertiary. The results suggest that some genera in the family Laelapidae need to be re-defined or new genera need to be established; the Late Cretaceous to Late Neogene warm period would have promoted the divergence and expansion of species in the family Laelapidae. The divergence and dispersal of the family Laelapidae species is most likely a joint response to the continued northward drift of the Indian plate away from the Gondwana paleo-continent and gradually closer to Asia during the Late Cretaceous and the geological activity of the Tibetan Plateau during the Cenozoic Tertiary. The results strengthen our understanding of the origin and evolution of species in the family Laelapidae. |
