Maximum parsimony

We performed equally and differentially weighted maximum parsimony (MP) heuristic searches with a maximum of 99 999 trees; zero for random seed; and 10 000 sequence addition replicates and TBR branch swapping, using TNT ( Goloboff, 1999). Non-parametric bootstrap analyses ( Felsenstein, 1985) with 1000 pseudoreplicates and ten random sequence additions were conducted on the equally weighted data. Characters were optimized with ACCTRAN (accelerated transformation) in WINCLADA, favouring reversals over convergences ( de Pinna, 1991; Fig. 1).
