Fig. 2. Neighbor-joining phylogenetic tree drawn based on Kimura-2-parameter distances of partial 16S sequences among 9 'Silentes' spiny lobster species and the Japanese spiny lobster (Panulirus japonicus) as an outgroup. Accession numbers are shown in the parenthesis. Bootstrap values of>50% (out of 1000 replicates) are shown at the nodes. The same tree topology was obtained by maximum likelihood and maximum parsimony methods.
