From: Ancestral state reconstruction reveals multiple independent evolution of diagnostic morphological characters in the "Higher Oribatida" (Acari), conflicting with current classification schemes

Figure 2

Bayesian 50% majority rule consensus tree of 40 representatives of all five subdivisions of Circumdehiscentiae [35]: Opsiopheredermata (violet), Eupheredermata (green), dorsodeficient Apheredermata (orange), pycnonotic Apheredermata (blue) and Poronota (red). The tree is based on a combined data set of all available fragments of the 28S rDNA, ef-1α and hsp82 genes. Posterior probabilities >50 are shown. Numbers at nodes indicate nodes that have been used to assess ancestral states. *Sequence data of taxon obtained from GenBank.
