subfamily ANODONTITINAE Modell, 1942: cladomics
     2 genera

Cladomics Summary

number of species = 27 (27 total)
number of subtaxa (rank: genus) = 2
analyzed in 47 cladograms in 25 publications
maximum number of terminals in an analysis = 2 (mean = 1.34, median = 1)
maximum number of subtaxa (genus) = 2 (mean = 1.11, median = 1)

Basic Monophyly

number of cladograms that test basic monophyly (i.e., more than 1 included species) = 16
maximum number of included terminals = 2, (mean = 2 median = 2)
maximum number of subtaxa (genus) = 2 (mean = 1.31, median = 1)
proportion of cladograms that support basic monophyly = 0.63

Rigorous Monophyly

number of cladograms that test rigorous monophyly = 5
(Rigorous monophyly refers to cladograms with terminal species representing more than one subtaxon (genus) taxon and at least one rigorous outgroup (family).
maximum number of included terminals = 2 (mean = 2, median = 2)
maximum number of subtaxa (genus) = 2 (mean = 2, median = 2)
proportion of cladograms that support rigorous monophyly = 0

Pairwise Cladogram Clustering

The graphs below depict in two dimensions all pair-wise ingroup distances within the cladome. See the Cladmoics FARQ for more information.
