FIGURE 4 Maximum likelihood topology generated from partial sequences of cytochrome b oxidase (cob) (A) and cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (cox 1) (B) of the Homoscleromorpha of this study and from sequences downloaded from GenBank. Topology for both trees is rooted on the sponge Ectyoplasia ferox (Duchassaing & Michelloti, 1864) EU 23748.1 (Class Demospongiae, Order Axinellida). Bootstrap values less than 50 % were omitted from the trees. Coding following the species names refers to the museum catalogue number or collection location (PA-Panama, PR- Puerto Rico, BH-Bahamas) followed by lifestyle (AS-associated, FL-free-living). Species highlighted in bold represented sequences provided by this study.

FIGURE 8 Maximum likelihood topology generated from partial sequences of (A) 18S rRNA genes, (B) 28S rRNA genes and (C) cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (cox1) of the Haplosclerida generated in this study (bold) and sequences downloaded from GenBank. Topology is rooted on Amphimedon compressa (Duchassaing & Michelotti 1864) (EU702409.1) for 18S rRNA genes, Axinella corrugata (George & Wilson 1919) (DQ915619.1) for 28S rRNA genes and Amphimedon queenslandica (Hooper & Van Soest 2006) (DQ915619.1) for cox1. Bootstrap values less than 50% have been omitted from the trees. Clades A, B, D and E refer to Redmond et al. (2013 Fig. 4). Coding following the species names refers to the museum catalogue number or collection location (PA—Panama, PR—Puerto Rico, BH—Bahamas) followed by lifestyle (AS—associated, FLfree-living). Associated samples from Puerto Rico involve P. symbiotica and associated samples from the Bahamas and Panama involve P. deweerdtaephila. Species highlighted in bold represented sequences provided by this study.
