FIG. 13 in Systematic Revision of the Neotropical Club-Tailed Scorpions, Physoctonus, Rhopalurus, and Troglorhopalurus, Revalidation of Heteroctenus, and Descriptions of Two New Genera and Three New Species (Buthidae: Rhopalurusinae)

FIG. 13. Phylogeny of the New World buthid scorpion subfamily Rhopalurusinae Bücherl, 1971, obtained by simultaneous phylogenetic analysis of 90 morphological characters and 4260 aligned DNA nucleotides from three mitochondrial and two nuclear gene loci. Maximum clade credibility tree with synapomorphies optimized by accelerated transformation. Black circles indicate uniquely derived apomorphic states, white bars parallel derivations of apomorphic states. Numbers above indicate characters, and below indicate states (appendix 1).Published as part of Lauren A. Esposito, Humberto Y. Yamaguti, Cláudio A.
