  abstract = {{S}eed beetles are a group of specialized chrysomelid beetles, which are mostly associated with plants of the legume family ({F}abaceae). {I}n the legume-feeding species, a marked trend of phylogenetic conservatism of host use has been highlighted by several molecular phylogenetics studies. {Y}et, little is known about the evolutionary patterns of association of species feeding outside the legume family. {H}ere, we investigate the evolution of host use in {S}permophagus, a species-rich seed beetle genus that is specialized on two non-legume host-plant groups: morning glories ({C}onvolvulaceae) and mallows ({M}alvaceae: {M}alvoideae). {S}permophagus species are widespread in the {O}ld {W}orld, especially in the {A}frotropical, {I}ndomalaya and {P}alearctic regions. {I}n this study we rely on eight gene regions to provide the first phylogenetic framework for the genus, along with reconstructions of host use evolution, estimates of divergence times and historical biogeography analyses. {L}ike the legume-feeding species, a marked trend toward conservatism of host use is revealed, with one clade specializing on {C}onvolvulaceae and the other on {M}alvoideae. {C}omparisons of plants' and insects' estimates of divergence times yield a contrasted pattern: on one hand a quite congruent temporal framework was recovered for morning-glories and their seed-predators; on the other hand the diversification of {S}permophagus species associated with mallows apparently lagged far behind the diversification of their hosts. {W}e hypothesize that this delayed colonization of {M}alvoideae can be accounted for by the respective biogeographic histories of the two groups.},
