Figure 5. A, majority-rule consensus tree of nine equally parsimonious trees retrieved from an analysis with characters having equal weights. Tree length = 129, consistency index excluding uninformative characters = 0.60, retention index = 0.81. Numbers in bold indicate frequency of clades in the fundamental trees. Nodes without numbers indicate the clades present in the strict consensus. Values of Bremer support above 1 are indicated in parentheses. B, most parsimonious tree obtained from the analysis with implied weights with coefficient of concavity = 6, and one of the nine most parsimonious trees from the analysis with characters having equal weights. Total fit = 62.68, adjusted homoplasy = 6.32.
