FIG. 5. — Phylogenetic hypotheses including Podocnemis tatacoensis n in A new fossil turtle ends the controversy on the occurrence of the extant genus Podocnemis Wagler, 1830 at the Miocene fauna of La Venta, Colombia

FIG. 5. — Phylogenetic hypotheses including Podocnemis tatacoensis n. sp.: A, strict consensus of 192 most parsimonious trees (MPTs), obtained from the first analysis (all taxa, all morphological characters), tree length (TL) = 1318, consistency index (CI) = 0.275, retention index (RI) = 0.741, see the full tree in Supplementary Data S3 (Appendix 3); B, close up of the Podocnemis clade shown in (A). C, close up of the Podocnemis clade obtained in the strict consensus from the second analysis excluding all fossil Podocnemis except P. tatacoensis n. sp., see the full tree in Supplementary Data S4 (Appendix 4), MPTs = 48, TL = 1310, CI = 0.277, and RI = 0.744. Bootstrap (upper) and Bremer support (lower) indices are shown for some clades in (B) and (C); D, close up of the Podocnemis clade obtained from the total evidence analysis that produced a single MPT, TL = 4225, CI = 0.699, and RI = 0.794, as in the morphology only analyses, P. tatacoensis n. sp. is found to be part of Podocnemis and closer to the extant P. unifilis and the fossil P. negrii.
