Bivalvia | Venerida | Cyrenoidea

family GLAUCONOMIDAE Gray, 1853: cladomics
     1 genus

Cladomics Summary

number of species = 11 (11 total)
number of subtaxa (rank: genus) = 1
analyzed in 3 cladograms in 1 publication
maximum number of terminals in an analysis = 5 (mean = 3, median = 3)
maximum number of subtaxa (genus) = 1 (mean = 1, median = 1)

Basic Monophyly

number of cladograms that test basic monophyly (i.e., more than 1 included species) = 2
maximum number of included terminals = 5, (mean = 4 median = 4)
maximum number of subtaxa (genus) = 1 (mean = 1, median = 1)
proportion of cladograms that support basic monophyly = 0.5
