FIGURE 7. Timetree of Neotropical skinks (Mabuyidae, Mabuyinae) using the data and topology of the full (four-gene) data set from Fig. 5. Divergence times (indicated on nodes) are in millions of years and are averages of the results of two Bayesian analyses (independent and autocorrelated rates). Bayesian credibility intervals (gray bars) are composites of the intervals derived from the two analyses. Three African species (Mabuyidae, Trachylepidinae subfam. nov.) are included to estimate the time of the trans-Atlantic dispersal event. Blue vertical bars indicate taxa occuring on Caribbean islands.

FIGURE 5. Phylogenetic tree of Neotropical skinks (Mabuyidae, Mabuyinae) from a maximum-likelihood analysis of DNA sequences of three mitochondrial genes (12S rRNA, 16S rRNA, and cyt b) and one nuclear gene (myosin) in 126 individuals. Of those, 22 individuals (76 sequences) are new to this study and the others are from earlier studies (Carranza & Arnold 2003; Vrcibradic et al. 2006; Whiting et al. 2006; Miralles et al. 2009b; Miralles & Carranza 2010). Genera are indicated to the right, and a scale bar (5% sequence divergence) is indicated below. The numbers at nodes are bootstrap (left) and Bayesian (right)

FIGURE 2. Preserved museum specimens of adult male and female skinks from two islands on the Puerto Rican Bank, Culebra (left; Spondylurus culebrae sp. nov.) and Anegada (right; S. anegadae sp. nov.), currently considered to be the same species, "Mabuya" sloanii. Note consistent difference in coloration and body size (S. culebrae sp. nov. = 98 mm SVL, S. anegadae sp. nov. = 70 mm SVL, maximums). Females from both islands, shown here, contain developing young. All were collected by Chapman Grant in the 1930s and are in the collection of the University of Michigan, Museum of Zoology.
