Fig. 3.

Phylogram showing major amphibian clades and occurrence of verified examples that can and cannot regenerate the lens. The type of lens regeneration is indicated by different colors, as shown in the key. Examples of lens epithelial cell (LEC) regeneration are not mapped onto this particular tree (however, see table 1). Representatives from several families, including the more basal groups, have not yet been examined. Colored dots represent possible presence of that matching character in the common ancestor for those particular nodes or branches. See text and table 1 for further details. Phylogenetic relationships based on Germain and Laurin 2009; Pyron and Wiens 2011; and Feng et al. 2017.
