The phylogenetic relationships of xenodontine snakes are inferred from sequence analyses of portions of two mitochondrial genes (12S and 16S ribosomal RNA) in 85 species. Although support values for most of the basal nodes are low, the general pattern of cladogenesis observed is congruent with many

An analysis of partial sequences of the 16S ribosomal rRNA gene (582 bp) of 20 poison frog species (Dendrobatidae) confirmed their phylogenetic relationships to bufonid and leptodactylid frogs.

Oysters are among the most familiar, best studied, and morphologically variable of all marine invertebrate taxa. However, our knowledge of oyster phylogeny and systematics is rudimentary, especially for the subfamily Ostreinae (flat oysters). It is unclear, for instance, whether the predominant flat
DNA data were collected from a number of acanthomorph fishes for 12S rDNA (30 sequences) and 16S rDNA (39 sequences) to investigate the phylogenetic relationships of genera within Cetomimidae (whalefishes) and of this family within the Stephanoberyciformes/Beryciformes assemblage. The Cetomimidae ar
