FIGURE 2. Maximum-likelihood (ML) tree based on mitochondrial ND2 and flanking tRNA sequences. Bayesian inference (BI) and maximum parsimony (MP) analyses produced consistent but less-well-resolved topologies. Sequences without any museum numbers are from GenBank direct submissions. Paramesotriton sp. is the new population from western Hubei. Numbers on branches are MP bootstrap values; ML bootstrap values; Bayesian posterior probabilities. Asterisks indicate> 95% support in both MP and MP analyses and> 99% support in the partitioned-BI; double-dashes denote <50% support. The sister genus Pachytriton (P. brevipes, P. archospotus and P. labiatus) is chosen as the outgroup taxon.

FIGURE 1. Geographic distribution of Cynops fudingensis sp. nov. (red dot), C. orientalis (orange shading) and C. orphicus (green shading) in southeastern China (adapted from Fei et al. 2006). Samples of the latter two species used in the molecular analysis are denoted by blue squares (C. orientalis) and black triangles (C. orphicus). Inset: red square shows the location of the focal area in China.

FIGURE 3 in A new newt of the genus Cynops (Caudata: Salamandridae) from Fujian Province, southeastern China

FIGURE 3. Bayesian inference (BI) tree based on ND2 and flanking tRNA sequences. Maximum parsimony (MP) and maximum likelihood (ML) analyses yielded similar topologies. Numbers on branches: bootstrap support from MP analysis/bootstrap support from ML analysis/Bayesian posterior probability (%). For Cynops, Chinese taxa are coded in red; Japanese species are in green. Cynops orientalis from Dehua, Fujian Province (MVZ 231158) should be reassigned to C. orphicus. The tree is rooted by species of the sister genera Pachytriton and Paramesotriton.

FIGURE 2. Principal-components (PC) scores of Cynops fudingensis sp. nov., C. orientalis and C. orphicus. Positive PC 1 scores mean a proportionately shorter trunk, longer tail, longer head and longer limbs. Positive PC 2 scores correspond to a proportionately larger head, longer limbs and shorter trunk. All body measurements were divided by SVL before principal-components analysis, and thus represent proportions.
