Fast-Evolving Homoplastic Traits Are Best for Species Identification in a Group of Neotropical Wasps

Biological characters can be employed for both taxonomy and phylogenetics, but is conscripting characters for double duty a good idea? We explore the evolution of characters designed for taxonomic diagnosis in Costa Rican heterospiline wasps, a hyperdiverse lineage of parasitoid Braconidae, by mappi...
