Figures

Figure 1. Bayesian phylogenetic tree based on SSU and COI sequences of the family Cyphoderiidae.At each node posterior probability values (Bayesian analysis) and bootstrap values (Maximum Likelihood analysis) are represented.The colours represent the molecular clades. GenBank accession codes are given on the tips. Species names correspond to the taxonomic assignation of the organisms based on morphology for each lineage.

Figure 3. Dichotomous key of the family Cyphoderiidae.New genera are in bold with their respective shell outline drawing (50 μm scale bar), scale arrangement under SEM (grey box with 10 μm scale bar), and shell outline under light microscopy (orange box) in order to differentiate them. (A) Cyphoderia; (B) Oleiformis gen. nov.; (C) Ichthyosquama gen. nov.: (D) Knarr gen. nov., (E) Psammoderia gen. nov.

Figure 5. SEM images of the different species of Oleiformis gen. nov. Insets show the typical habitat for each organism. At the bottom, an original drawing of the previously known species is shown. The coloured squares at the top left of each image have the same colour as the clades to which each taxon corresponds in Fig.1. The white bar represents a scale of 10 μm and the black bar 50 μm for each organism.

Figure 7. SEM images of the different species of Knarr gen. nov. and the original drawings of both genera, Knarr gen. nov. and Psammoderia gen. nov. Insets show the typical habitat for each organism. The coloured squares at the top left of each image have the same colour as the clades to which each taxon corresponds in Fig. 1. The white bar represents a scale of 10 μm and the black bar 50 μm for each organism.
