The plant mariner-like elements were used as a monophyletic out-group, a position suggested by previous analyses. |
They proposed a monophyletic clade that includes primates, the tree shrew, the flying lemur, rabbit, and rodents. |
Because the taxa are not reciprocally monophyletic, we cannot date the actual speciation event. |
We extended the analysis to the five cowbird species that conform a monophyletic group in the phylogeny. |
Based on the additional support of molecular data, we hereafter use the name Zenarchopteridae for this monophyletic group of halfbeaks. |
Most of the traditionally recognized subgenera of Anchusa are also supported as monophyletic groups by both nuclear and plastid sequence data. |
