35 CONCLUSIONS Lucilia Group 1. Lucilia group sensu Anderb. is paraphyletic. 2. Molecular + Morphological evidence confirm the monophyly of 8 of 9 genera of Lucilia group sensu Anderb.: Berroa, Chevreulia, Cuatrecasasiella, Facelis, Gamochaetopsis, Jalcophila, Lucilia, Luciliocline sensu Anderb. & Freire. 3. Molecular analysis: Mniodes (Loricariinae) forms a monophyletic group with Belloa sensu Anderb. & Freire (excl. Type) and Luciliocline sensu Anderb. & Freire. 4. Molecular + Morphological characters: Jalcophila boliviensis belongs to genus Jalcophila. 5. Molecular and Molecular + Morphological confirm: Belloa as a monotypic genus.

36 6. Molecular Evidence: Two clades Cuatrecasasiella Chevreulia * Jalcophila Loricaria Luciliocline Belloas Mniodes Gamochaeta * Stucke rtiella* Gamochaetopsis Belloa Facelis * Berroa Lucilia *

37 WORK IN PROGRESS: PHYLOGENY OF LUCILIA GROUP To add Micropsis (Gnaphaliinae) and Chionolaeana (Cassiniinae) PHYLOGENY OF GAMOCHAETA To add species from Chile To combine molecular and morphological evidence
