Figure 6. Residuals eye size corrected for body size by genera of Myctophidae, corrected for phylogeny (phylogeny A, [43]).

Colors represent the tribes of Paxton et al. [43], as in Figure 4. The genus Diaphus was divided into two groups based on the presence/absence of the So. Groups with the same superscript letters are not significantly different from one another, independent of the phylogeny used based on the post-hoc analyses. Groups with no superscript letters were not included in the analyses due to the low samples size (n<3). # indicates genera that were not significantly different when analysed with phylogeny B (P = 1) and for four of the ten randomly resolved polytomy phylogenies of phylogeny A (P = 0.06–0.08).
