Dataset abbreviations explained in Table 4. RAxML majority rule (MJR) is a consensus across all 16 submatrices. Support values are bootstrap percentages. The number of clades with positive support is summed for all clades with either a + (presence) or numerical support; par = paraphyletic; – = not monophyletic. Estimated diversity (genera/species) after family group names from Noyes [4]. Taxa represented by a single OTU or incertae sedis (i.s.) were considered not applicable (n/a) for clade support.
