tribe HYRIINI Swainson, 1840: cladomics
     2 genera

Cladomics Summary

number of species = 4 (5 total)
number of subtaxa (rank: genus) = 2
analyzed in 31 cladograms in 16 publications
maximum number of terminals in an analysis = 3 (mean = 1.16, median = 1)
maximum number of subtaxa (genus) = 2 (mean = 1.13, median = 1)

Basic Monophyly

number of cladograms that test basic monophyly (i.e., more than 1 included species) = 4
maximum number of included terminals = 3, (mean = 2.25 median = 2)
maximum number of subtaxa (genus) = 2 (mean = 2, median = 2)
proportion of cladograms that support basic monophyly = 1

Rigorous Monophyly

number of cladograms that test rigorous monophyly = 4
(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 = 3 (mean = 2.25, median = 2)
maximum number of subtaxa (genus) = 2 (mean = 2, median = 2)
proportion of cladograms that support rigorous monophyly = 1
