Figure 4.

Reticulation of the species phylogeny by hybrid speciation. A strict consensus of mitochondrial and nuclear phylogenies was constructed from the subset of species that was assumed to have undergone bifurcating speciation. The inferred hybrid species (indicated in bold) were added according to their positions in the nuclear phylogeny. Stippled branches indicate hypothesized, now extinct lineages; red arrows indicate the direction of introgression of the mitochondrial genome into the hybrid species. Photographs show the large degree of morphological diversity in the ossified-group lamprologines.
