Figure 3

Maximum-likelihood estimate of phyllostomid phylogeny. Best maximum-likelihood tree obtained with RAxML v7.0.4 (see methods section: Alignment 5). The family Phyllostomidae (ten subfamilies) and representatives of closely related chiropteran families Noctilionidae, Furipteridae and Mormoopidae are shown. Further outgroup taxa (Molossidae, Vespertilionidae, Rhinolophidae) are not shown. Support values were obtained by a full non-parametric bootstrap search with 2500 iterations. Symbols refer to feeding specialization of different terminal lineages [5, 61, 115, 116] and circles at some nodes indicate reconstructed states for their ancestors. One reconstruction obtained an ambiguous result (marked with ?).
