Relationships of (A) head length (as % of SL), (B) distance between dorsal-fin origin to pectoral-fin insertion (D–P1; as % HL), and (C) snout length (as % SL) in Stolephorus babarani n. sp. (open circles; HL / SL:Y = -0.0333X + 27.078, p value <0.01; D–P1 / HL: Y = 0.377X + 114.41, p value <0.05), S. bataviensis (closed squares; HL / SL: Y = -0.0427X + 29.796, p value <0.000001; D–P1 / HL: Y = 0.3023X + 100.58, p value <0.0001) and S. baweanensis (closed triangles; HL / SL: Y = -0.0357X + 27.833, p value <0.01; D–P1 / HL: Y = 0.3207X + 112.9, p value <0.02).

dc:description"FIGURE 6. Maximum-likelihood phylogenetic tree of 60 specimens of the genus Stolephorus (Clupeiformes; Engraulidae) using the cytochrome b and the cytochrome oxidase I (COI) genes (total: 1,788 base pairs). Stolephorus babarani n. sp. forms a monophyletic group, sister to Stolephorus baweanensis. They are separated by> 6% (combined COI and cytochrome b) mean p-distance to each other. Specimen labels include Museum collection numbers or specimen code. Specimens of Stolephorus indicus and Stolephorus commersonii are collectively used to root this tree. Branch lengths are proportional to number of substitutions (scale unit is number of nucleotide substitutions per site). Numbers given at nodes are Bootstrap Proportions (shown only for interspecific relationships).";
