FIGURE 12. The phylogenetic position of Asagaolacerta tricuspidens gen. et sp. nov. tested using different analytical protocols within TNT. 1, detail of Strict Consensus of 1000 trees using the protocol that yielded the tree in Figure 5.1, node support values Bremer/Jacknife/Symmetric sampling; 2, one of three trees resulting from an analysis using with the molecular backbone constraint tree, but no character ordering or weighting; 3, one of 58 trees from an analysis run as in (2), but with character ordering as per Gauthier et al. (2012) and Longrich et al. (2012), and Implied Weighting (k=7); 4, one of 34 trees from an analysis run as in (3), but without the molecular backbone constraint; 5, 70% MRT of 19 trees resulting from an analysis (characters ordered but equally weighted, no constraints) run using only the boreoteiioid taxa, with Gekko gecko as the outgroup taxon. The 70%MRT is presented rather than the unresolved Strict Consensus to show that Asagaolacerta tricuspidens is usually (88% of trees) placed in the basal position (see text for further discussion). Abbreviation: poly, polyglyphanodont (as used in Longrich et al., 2012).
