The #feverfly #Dilophus #febrilis (#Bibionidae) prefers forest edges and hedgerow habitats in #Europe; here visiting #Solidago gigantea (Asteraceae) in #Berlin in #September. S. Falk & J. McCulloch (2025) sequenced the species as part of the Darwin #TreeofLife Consortium. The #genome comprises 305.60 #megabases, mostly scaffolded into 6 chromosomal pseudomolecules. #Biodiversity

The tree of Life project contributes to our advanced knowledge about our biodiversity and their phylogenetic relationships. Biodiversity research is for example an important aspect of climate research.
