We investigated diversification patterns and historical biogeography of a hyperdiverse lineage of female flightlessness Lepidoptera, the geometrid moths, by studying its most species-rich tribe Boarmiini, which comprises ca. 200 boarmiines genera and ca. known 3000 species. We inferred the evolutionary relationships of Boarmiini based on a dataset of Cleora Biston 346 taxa, with up to eight genetic markers under a maximum likelihood approach.
