Appendix 7 in A new bat species of the genus Myotis with comments on the phylogenetic placement of M. keaysi and M. pilosatibialis

Appendix 7. Molecular synapomorphies of Myotis armiensis sp. n., as revealed by maximum-parsimony (MP) analysis of partial cytochrome b (~ 710 bp). Molecular transformations were optimized on a 50 % majority-rule consensus tree of the most parsimonious tree (2846 steps; [CI] = 0.238) resulting from the MP analysis of partial cytochrome b. 31 fixed derived characters states were found in the newly identified lineage. Of these, 1, which is indicated by asterisk, has not evolved independently in any other species of Neotropical Myotis. The remaining have appeared secondarily in at least one species of Neotropical Myotis.
