Figure 4

Maximum likelihood (ML) phylogeny of SSU rRNA genes from Pseudotrichonympha, showing the relationships between Pseudotrichonympha leei, Pseudotrichonympha lifesoni, and Pseudotrichonympha pearti, to other members of the genus. The tree is rooted with the closest known relatives to Pseudotrichonympha, Teranympha and Eucomonypha. Numbers at nodes correspond to ML bootstrap support over 70% (values for nodes with lower support are not shown for clarity), and the scale bar represents a distance of 0.06 substitutions per site. Taxon names include GenBank accession numbers and the name of the termite host, where known. Most of the diversity on the phylogeny is represented by sequences from undescribed species, many from unidentified hosts, emphasizing our dearth of knowledge about the diversity of this lineage.
