Figure 4.
Phylogenetic hypothesis for the subfamily Arctiinae (Noctuoidea, Erebidae) based on maximum likelihood (ML) analysis, along with outgroups.
Clades representing tribes are colored. Support values (ML Bootstrap/PP posterior probability) are shown next to the branches.
Figure 5.
Summary of Bayesian ancestral state reconstruction analysis for major arctiine lineages optimized on the ML topology, implemented in the program RASP (Yan et al., 2011).
Ancestral PA acquisition strategy reconstructions with highest marginal probabilities are indicated at each node. Blue = Adults associated with PAs; Orange = Adults and larvae associated with PAs (e.g., Nyctemera); Purple = Larvae associated with PAs (generalists); Green = Larval obligate early polyphagous late (e.g., Haploa); Tan = Larvae associated with PAs (specialists).
