FIGURE 7. Phylogenetic tree using COI gene sequences of 45 species of Sillaginidae based on maximum likelihood method. Three species of the suborder Percoidei, Callanthias japonicus, Dicentrarchus labrax and Pempheris schwenkii, were selected as outgroup species. Findings from species delimitation approaches on the basis of COI gene sequences using the PTP, ABGD and ASAP methods are presented as vertical bars that link extreme taxa in the tree if allocated to the same hypothetical species.
