Phylogenetic tree reconstruction of Tripneustes control region (CR) sequences. The BI tree is based on 19 unique haplotypes, 446 bp long, representing T. kermadecensis n. sp., T. g. elatensis and T. g. gratilla, and is rooted on Hemicentrotus pulcherrimus and Strongylocentrotus droebachiensis (GenBank accession numbers KC490911, EU054306 and NC009940, respectively). Color code as in Fig. 5. Supporting values (>0.9 posterior probabilities and >60% ML bootstrap values) are shown above the nodes. Clades A (comprising T. kermadecensis n. sp.), and B (comprising both T. g. gratilla and T. g. elatensis) are discussed in the text. Details on the sequences used for this tree are given in the Supplementary Tables S1 and S2.
