The mean genetic distances between Euphlyctis species clades (a–f) calculated using the Maximum composite Likelihood method, using a combined dataset of two mitochondrial genes (16S and 12S).
Figure 4.
Phylogenetic relationships among available species in the genus Euphlyctis.
Analysis is based on 746 bp mtDNA (16S and 12S gene sequences) showing the position of Euphlyctis kalasgramensis sp. nov. Hoplobatrachus occipitalis was used as an outgroup. Numbers on branches represent bootstrap support for Maximum-likelihood, and Bayesian posterior probability.
