Fig. 91 in Taxonomic Descriptions of Two Marine Ciliates, Euplotes dammamensis n. sp. and Euplotes balteatus (Dujardin, 1841) Kahl, 1932 (Ciliophora, Spirotrichea, Euplotida), Collected from the Arabian Gulf, Saudi Arabia

Fig. 91. Phylogenetic tree inferred by Maximum Likelihood (ML) based on SSU-rRNA gene sequences, showing the positions of Euplotes dammamensis n. sp. and Euplotes balteatus (red highlighted). The topology of the tree constructed with Bayesian analysis (BI) was essentially identical. Fully supported (100%/1.00) branches are marked with solid circles. The scale bar corresponds to 2 substitutions per 100 nucleotide positions. Systematic classification follows Lynn (2008).
