Figure 7

From: Mitochondrial and nuclear phylogenetic analysis with Sanger and next-generation sequencing shows that, in Área de Conservación Guanacaste, northwestern Costa Rica, the skipper butterfly named Urbanus belli(family Hesperiidae) comprises three morphologically cryptic species

Figure 7

Conserved ITS2 secondary structure for variants of the Urbanus bernikerni complex. Helices are numbered accordingly. The U-U mismatch typically found in Eukaryotes is outlined with a black circle in helix II. The complete structure represents the 51% consensus of aligned structures with gaps. Degree of secondary structure conservation is displayed in color grades from green (conserved) to red (not conserved).
