Fig. 5.2. Phylogeny of monopisthocotylean Monogenea based on SSU rDNA. The tree topology is from a Bayesian analysis with nodal support indicated, from top to bottom, for maximum likelihood (bootstrap%, n = 100), maximum parsimony (bootstrap%, n = 1000) and Bayesian inference (posterior probabilities). Figure from Matejusova etal. (2003).
