Figure 16 in Postcranial anatomy of Haldanodon exspectatus (Mammalia, Docodonta) from the Late Jurassic (Kimmeridgian) of Portugal and its bearing for mammalian evolution

Figure 16. Strict consensus tree of 27 equally parsimonious trees for early mammals based on 280 cranio-mandibular and postcranial characters using PAUP 4.0b10 with heuristic branch-and bound search, set at random with 1000 replicates; starting seed = 1794832392. All characters unordered and with equal weight. Each of the 27 equally parsimonious trees has: Treelength = 956, CI = 0.500, RI = 0.763. Haldanodon (arrow) appears above the node of morganucodontids as sister taxon of the common ancestor of Hadrocodium and living mammals plus all of its descendants (node 2 in Luo et al., 2002: figs 1, 2). For character states and score for Haldanodon see the Appendix.
