a

Monophyly constraints enforced with paup (18). 

b

Under indel coding excluding uninformative characters. Numbers in parentheses indicate difference in length between the MPT and constrained trees. 

c

Only the best tree from each constraint was included in this test. 

d

Transition/transversion ratio estimated via maximum likelihood for Kishino–Hasegawa test. 

e

Difference in ln likelihood (L) between best tree and suboptimal tree. 

f

SD of log likelihood. 

g

Probability of obtaining a more extreme T-value, using the two-tailed test, with the null hypothesis being that there is no difference between the two trees. All values are significant at P = <0.05.
