FIGURE 1. Phylogeny of the New World blackbirds (Icteridae) inferred from mitochondrial and nuclear DNA sequences of 118 taxa (outgroups not shown)—topology taken from the best tree found under maximum likelihood by Powell et al. (2014; fig. 4); branch lengths estimated in BEAST 1.7.4 (lognormal uncorrelated relaxed clock model for mtDNA, strict clock for nDNA; Drummond et al. 2012) using the same data and mitochondrial partitioning as Powell et al. (2014), but nuclear sequences partitioned by locus. Dashed line marks the threshold used to assign subfamily ranks. Species are listed in the order given by this tree topology and (starting from the deepest node) following the conventions of listing the taxon in the leastdiverse clade first, or for equally diverse clades, the northwestern-most lineage first. However, the ordering of Cacicus haemorrhous, C. oseryi, and C. latirostris was altered to list the two oropendola-like caciques together and last among Cacicus, a sequence that is consistent with the better-supported resolution of relationships among these three taxa inferred from a larger mitochondrial dataset (unpublished).
