| | When Did Angiosperms First Evolve? |
| | The four main groups of insects involved in angiosperm pollination (in decreasing order of importance) are the Hymenoptera (bees), Lepidoptera (butterflies and moths), Diptera (flies), and Coleoptera (beetles). | | | The pattern of angiosperm radiation is consistent with the pattern of anthophilous insect radiation and the pattern of appearance of derived floral characters and taxa specifically associated with the most advanced anthophilous insects. | | | The one group of insects that shows diversification beginning in the Ladinian (late Middle Triassic), and continuing through the Mesozoic and Cenozoic is the Coleoptera. |
