Figure 4. Phylogeny of the Citharinoidei as inferred by likelihood in RAxML.

Letters A-J indicate major suprageneric clades. Colored circles on nodes indicate degree of support as determined by bootstrap values (B). Branches of select generic and suprageneric assemblages are differentially colored to indicate composition and configuration of distichodontid subclades discussed in the text. Long branches leading to the outgroup species Danio rerio (root) and Ictalurus punctatus are not shown.
