A new species of mene (perciformes: menidae) from the paleocene of south america, with notes on paleoenvironment and a brief review of menid fishes
Matt Friedman,G. David Johnson +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a new species of menid fish, Mene purdyi, was described from northwestern Peru and a Paleocene age (late thanetian) was estimated for the specimen based on biostratigraphic analysis of planktonic foraminifers recovered from the surrounding matrix.
Journal ArticleDOI
Molecular phylogeny of the small ermine moth genus Yponomeuta (Lepidoptera, Yponomeutidae) in the palaearctic.
TL;DR: The phylogeny of the Palaearctic members of the small ermine moth genus Yponomeuta is reconstructed to provide a solid framework for studies in the evolution of phytophagous insects and their host-plant associations, and to obtain insight into the history of host- plant use and the biogeography of the genus.

Integrating multi-origin expression data improves the resolution of deep phylogeny of ray-finned fish (Actinopterygii)
TL;DR: Based on the transcriptome sequences generated in this study and the extensive expression data currently available from public databases, alignments of 274 orthologue groups for 26 scientifically and commercially important actinopterygians are obtained, representing 17 out of 44 orders within the class Actinoperygii.

A Molecular Phylogeny of the Remoras and their Relatives
TL;DR: Recon reconstructing the phylogenetic history of the Echeneoidea found that the genus Remora was paraphyletic based on the position of Remorina albescens Temminck and Schlegel, 1850, and the family Coryphaenidae was monophyletic.

The neighbor-joining method: a new method for reconstructing phylogenetic trees.
Naruya Saitou,Masatoshi Nei +1 more
TL;DR: The neighbor-joining method and Sattath and Tversky's method are shown to be generally better than the other methods for reconstructing phylogenetic trees from evolutionary distance data.
Journal ArticleDOI
Confidence limits on phylogenies: an approach using the bootstrap.
TL;DR: The recently‐developed statistical method known as the “bootstrap” can be used to place confidence intervals on phylogenies and shows significant evidence for a group if it is defined by three or more characters.
Journal ArticleDOI
The CLUSTAL_X windows interface: flexible strategies for multiple sequence alignment aided by quality analysis tools.
TL;DR: ClUSTAL X is a new windows interface for the widely-used progressive multiple sequence alignment program CLUSTAL W, providing an integrated system for performing multiple sequence and profile alignments and analysing the results.
