3.2.5. Symploce Hebard, 1916

Note.

In this genus, with the type species S. hebardi Princis, 1969 (not included in our analyses), we establish two new species mainly according to the morphological characters. In addition, inferred from our phylogenetic analyses (Fig. 1 ), Episymploce maxima Li, Liu, Qiu and Yue is grouped together with other Symploce species; thus, we propose one new combination.

Figures

Figure 1. Maximum likelihood (ML) tree based on three mitochondrial genes 12 S rRNA, 16 S rRNA, COII and two nuclear genes 28 S rRNA, histone H 3. The topologies yielded by Bayesian inference (BI) are almost identical with ML tree (see supplementary material Fig. S 1). Branch labels provide bootstrap support (bs) of nodes in ML and posterior probability (pp) (%) of nodes in BI; (*) indicates the branch label of the corresponding analysis is 100 or 1.0, respectively; (-) means the node is absent for the given analysis.
