Figure 8. Body size evolution among Agaminae including genus Phrynocephalus.

Figure 8

See Table S5 for maximum SVL data. Color of branches corresponds to SVLmax (see legend). Rock-dwelling Laudakia s.l. are characterized by larger body size, while the common ancestor of Phrynocephalus was likely smaller than other Agaminae; sand-dwelling Microphrynocephalus (P. ornatus–P. interscapularis group) and Megalochilus (P. mystaceus group) represent the most miniaturized and the largest lineages within the genus, respectively.
