A phylogenetic analysis was performed using PAUP, version 4.0b10, in which all characters were left unordered and unweighted. During all searches the ancestral condition was left unknown. Character states were not assigned relative to a primitive/derived condition, i.e. a character state of 0 does not necessarily reflect the primitive state. During the Bootstrap analysis, the following options were in effect: full heuristic search with 1000 bootstrap replicates, and 50% majority rule consensus; tree bisection and reconnection (TBR) branch swapping was performed on minimal trees only (steepest descent by random stepwise addition), Multrees option in effect. The resulting tree was evaluated and edited in MacClade Version 4.0.
