Figure 1

Maximum likelihood tree of the combined molecular data. Species have been summarized into genera where possible. One asterisk denotes paraphyletic genus, two asterisks polyphyly, and three represents a genus that is both para- and polyphyletic. All taxa from conventional family Faviidae unless otherwise indicated. Clade designations XIV to XXI shown; clade XVII divided into well-supported subclades. Numbers adjacent to branches/taxa are support values (maximum likelihood bootstrap ≥50, maximum parsimony bootstrap ≥50, followed by Bayesian posterior probability ≥0.9). Filled circles indicate well-supported clades (bootstrap values ≥98 and posterior probability of 1).
