Fig 1.
Escarpia spicata (A, GK608); Lamellibrachia barhami (B, GK607; C, GK605; D, GK621); other vestimentiferan tubes which were not used for molecular analyses (E, F). Scale bar = 5 cm for A–D, 2 cm for E and F.
Fig 2.
Bayesian phylogeny of vestimentiferans based on the COI gene sequences (up to 1270 bp).
The numbers above the branches indicate the posterior probability (PP), followed by the percentage of maximum likelihood bootstrap probabilities (BS) above 50%. Asterisks indicate values of 1.00 (PP) or 100% (BS) and hyphens do value below 50% (BS).
Fig 3.
Bayesian phylogeny of Escarpia species based on the hbB2 gene sequences (up to 660 bp).
Seepiophila jonesi was included as an outgroup. The numbers above the branches indicate the posterior probability (PP), followed by the percentage of maximum likelihood bootstrap probabilities (BS) above 50%. Asterisks indicate values of 1.00 (PP) or 100% (BS).
