Molecular phylogeny of the yucca moths and their close relatives based on mitochondrial DNA sequences. The large box indicates the evolution of active pollination and the maxillary tentacles. These traits evolved once and were subsequently lost in the two indicated lineages (T. intermedia and T. corruptrix). Redrawn from Pellmyr and Leebens-Mack (1999). Abbreviations: T. Tegeticula, P. Prodoxus, M. Mesepiola, G. Greya
