  Endopterygota - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Endopterygota, also known as Holometabola, are insects of the subclass Pterygota which go through distinctive larval, pupal, and adult stages.
The Endopterygota are among the most diverse insect superorders, with at least 680,000 known species divided between eleven orders.
Endopterygota (meaning literally "internal winged forms") develop wings inside the body and undergo an elaborate metamorphosis involving a pupal stage.

That mean, the insects with a pupal stade between the larval and the adult stade.
Some superordre as been proposed for the Endopterygota but, the analysis arn't finished.
For now three hypothetical group has been postulated: the Amphiesmenoptera, the Neuropterida and the Antliophora.

They are distinguished from the Endopterygota (or Holometabola) by the way in which their wings develop.

In most types of insects, the young, called nymphs, are basically similar in form to the adults (grasshopper), though the wings are not yet developed.
Complete metamorphosis distinguishes the Endopterygota, which include many of the most successful insect groups.
In these, the egg hatches to produce a larva, which is generally worm-like in form and may be fairly helpless.

Recently, an antennal protein with OBP-like properties was identified from Lygus lineolaris, a hemipteran insect representing the Hemipteroid Assemblage, a sister division to the Endopterygota.
Sequence analysis confirmed that LAP is homologous with the OBP-related protein family, and most similar to the OS-E and OS-F proteins of Drosophila, the ABPX proteins of Lepidoptera and the OBPRP proteins of the Coleoptera.
In situ hybridization analysis revealed LAP expression in cell clusters associating with olfactory sensilla; expression was adult-specific, initiating in developing adult tissue during the transitional period that precedes the actual adult molt.

Since OBPs are currently thought to be the initial biochemical step in odor discrimination, knowledge of their structure could lead to the discovery by insect molecular biologists, biochemists and physiologists of chemicals to disrupt behavior of pestiferous insects.
Recently, LAP, an antennal protein with OBP-like properties, was identified from Lygus lineolaris, a hemipteran insect representing the Hemipteroid Assemblage, a sister division to the Endopterygota.
In situ hybridization reveals LAP mRNA expression in cell clusters associating with olfactory sensilla; expression is adult specific, although it initiates in developing adult tissue during the transitional period that precedes the adult molt.

Further details of the geological history of the Hexapoda will be found in the special articles on the various orders.
Fragmentary as the records are, they show that the Exopterygota preceded the Endopterygota in the See also:
evolution of the class, and that among the Endopterygota those orders in which the greatest difference exists between imago and larva—the Lepidoptera, Diptera and Hymenoptera—were the latest to take their rise.

 Hemimetabolous   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
One classification includes insects that have immatures with external wing pads, the Exopterygota, and species that have internal wing pads as larvae, the Endopterygota.
Another classification agrees with the previous demarcations but substitutes Hemimetabola for Exopterygota and Holometabola for Endopterygota.
Another view separates the Exopterygota into Paurometabola (for those whose immatures develop terrestrially) or Hemimetabola (whose immatures inhabit water) and retains the Endopterygota as a single unit, the Holometabola.

The Endopterygota represent one group of neopterous insects (>83% of all insect species) and includes moths, beetles, bees, ants and flies, but excludes cockroaches, grasshoppers, crickets, earwigs and termites.
The bugs (hemipterans) are considered a sister group with the Endopteryota, and with the Endopterygota, include >94% of all insect species.
As a consequence of our effort, demonstrating an OBP from a bug (hemipteran), we can say that the OBP gene was present in the ancestor of both the Endopterygota and Hemipteran insects and that these genes are therefore represented in >94% of all insects, which is a really huge number of species.

With approximately 380.000 described species beetles are by far the largest group of Hexapoda and the reasons for this immense diversification are one major topic at the department.
Other research projects deal with different groups of insects (e.g., Zoraptera, Strepsiptera, Endopterygota) and with the evolution of character systems.
A major field of research is the phylogeny of major subgroups of Coleoptera such as Archostemata, Myxophaga, Adephaga, and different lineages of Polyphaga (Staphyliniformia, Elateriformia, Cucujiformia).

 Odorant Binding Protein Diversity and Distribution among the Insect Orders, as Indicated by LAP, an OBP-related Protein ...
Within the Neoptera, there is strong consensus that the Endopterygota and Hemipteroid Assemblage are sister groups of a single monophyletic division (indicated by the arrow); there is less consensus for the relationships of the other groups shown (Boudreaux, 1979
Previously, OBP-related proteins have been reported only from species belonging to orders of the Endopterygota.
The orthopteroids include the indicated orders, and are often considered to be included within a monophyletic lineage distinct from the Endopterygota and Hemipteroid lineage; this orthopteroid lineage is not so represented because of ongoing debate on the placement of other neopteran orders (Boudreaux, 1979
