Fig. 7 in Integrative description of a new Tunisian tardigrade species, Macrobiotus azzunae sp. nov. (Eutardigrada, Macrobiotidae, hufelandi group)

Fig. 7. Left: tree resulting from both the maximum likelihood analysis and the Bayesian inference of cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) in M. azzunae sp. nov. specimens and sequences from GenBank. Values above branches point out bootstrap values, while values under branches represent posterior probability values. Results of the Poisson tree process analysis are provided using differently coloured branches: putative species are indicated using transitions from blue-coloured branches to red-coloured branches. Newly scored haplotypes are in bold. The scale bar shows the number of substitutions per nucleotide position. Centre: haplotype network of COI gene in M. hufelandi complex. Circles represent haplotypes, while circle surface denotes haplotype frequency. Networks falling below the value of the 95% connection limit are disconnected. Right: rectangles denote specimens grouped by ABGD analysis.
