Figures

Figure 3. Position and phylogenetic relationships of Gryon relative to other Scelionidae based on the topology depicted in Figure 1. Colored boxes above branches correspond to the level of support obtained for that branch based on the support metric. Branches annotated with a single box received equal levels of support in all analyses. The scale bar indicates the expected number of substitutions per site.
