Integrative description of two new tardigrade species from the rainforests of Kibale National Park, Uganda

Figure 11.

Bayesian phylogeny of the genus Echiniscus constructed from concatenated sequences (18S rRNA + 28S rRNA + ITS-1 + ITS-2 + COI). Numbers at nodes indicate Bayesian posterior probabilities (pp), black dots represent pp = 1. Nodes with pp < 0.75 were collapsed. New species is highlighted in orange. Species belonging to the spinulosus morphogroup and south-african endemic clade highlighted in green and yellow, respectively. Species Ech. aonikenk and Ech. meridionalis highlighted in red. Outgroup highlighted in grey. Scale bar represents substitutions per position.
