dc:description"FIGURE 3. Maximum-likelihood phylogeny of snakes of the genus Arrhyton from sequences of two mitochondrial genes (cytochrome b and ND4). Each species name is followed by GenBank accession numbers of the cytochrome b and ND4 genes, respectively. Voucher specimens are listed in Appendix 1. Numbers at nodes are bootstrap support values. The scale bar indicates 2% sequence divergence on a branch.";
