Fig. 62 in Phylogeny Of Phyllostomid Bats (Mammalia: Chiroptera): Data From Diverse Morphological Systems, Sex Chromosomes, And Restriction Sites

Fig. 62. Evolution of different types of insectivory (see text for description of character states) inferred from our optimization of the insectivory character of Ferrarezi and Gimenez (1996: table 1; see our table 8) on our strict consensus tree from the character congruence analysis. We inferred the state at the root with reference to a phylogeny of Microchiroptera (Simmons, 1998). The equivocal optimizations for Phyllostomidae and Vampyrini are due to differences in interpretation of the character under ACCTRAN or DELTRAN. The ''uncertain'' state for Noctilio is due to taxonomic polymorphism (see table 8).
