在系统发育背景的基础上讨论了鞘翅目Adephaga亚目的演化。形态特征的分析结果与最近的分子生物学结果几乎相同，高度特化的Gyrinidae被视为其余科的姐妹，它们形成两个大的单系亚基，一方面是水生的Haliplidae + Dytiscoidea（Meruidae，Noteridae，Aspidytidae，Ampalidae，Hygrobiidae，Dytiscoidea），另一方面是陆生的Geadephaga（Trachypachidae + Carabidae）。Adephaga的祖先栖息地，陆地或水生，仍然是模糊的。前一种选择将意味着两个或三个独立的入侵水生栖息地，与非常不同的结构适应的幼虫的Gyrinidae，Haliplidae和Dytiscoidea。
The evolution of the coleopteran suborder Adephaga is discussed based on a robust phylogenetic background. Analyses of morphological characters yield results nearly identical to recent molecular phylogenies, with the highly specialized Gyrinidae placed as sister to the remaining families, which form two large, reciprocally monophyletic subunits, the aquatic Haliplidae + Dytiscoidea (Meruidae, Noteridae, Aspidytidae, Amphizoidae, Hygrobiidae, Dytiscidae) on one hand, and the terrestrial Geadephaga (Trachypachidae + Carabidae) on the other. The ancestral habitat of Adephaga, either terrestrial or aquatic, remains ambiguous. The former option would imply two or three independent invasions of aquatic habitats, with very different structural adaptations in larvae of Gyrinidae, Haliplidae and Dytiscoidea.
