FIGURE 2. Maximum-likelihood tree based on analysis of sequences of the partial 28S gene (C2–D2 region, comprising 442 sites) of Western Indian Ocean Calcinea newly generated by the Naturalis Biodiversity Center and sequences additionally obtained from GenBank, the Sponge Barcode Project and from Oliver Voigt (München) from the Red Sea, Indonesia, Australia, and a few sequences from other parts of the world, to demonstrate the affiliation of the compared species. Please note that Arturia sequences do not appear in the same clade, indicating Arturia is non-monophyletic. Numbers at the root of clades are bootstrap values of 1000 replicates. Since the high number of sequences were difficult to read in detail, we subdivided the present tree in three detailed sections 2A, 2B, and 2C.
