FIGURE 7. Phylogram of relationships among nominal desmacellid taxa. Tree shown is a maximum likelihood phylogeny (- lnL = 8811.690278) based on a GTR + Γ model generated in RAxML. Maximal bootstrap values and posterior probabilities (100% and 1.0) are indicated by closed circles at the nodes. ML bootstrap support values <50% are not shown; bootstrap values ≥ 50% but <100% are indicated at nodes. Posterior probabilities are mapped onto nodes (where node is supported by bootstrapping), following bootstrap values (BS/0.PP). Clades of poecilosclerid taxa are denoted "P" and primary chelae- (and their derivatives-) bearing poecilosclerids are indicated by the image of a chela; it should be noted that although species of Tedania Gray, 1867 lack true chelae, this has been interpreted by Erpenbeck et al. (2007) as a secondary absence.
