Hypothesis Artigas & Palma 1979

Two hypotheses of relationships of Chilean Mydidae as proposed by Artigas & Palma 1979 based on morphological characters (Figs 2–3).

A parsimony analysis of the original matrix that Artigas & Palma based their hypotheses on (presented in Fig. 1 in Artigas & Palma 1979) results in a single most parsimonious tree of length 12 and is identical to the tree depicted in Fig. 2 above.
