The most surprising placement in our tree is that of M. leucogaster. In all of our calculated trees shown in Fig. 3B , with 100% reported posterior probability where calculated, M. leucogaster disrupts the monophyly of the genus Myotis ( Fig. 3B and SI Appendix, Fig. S5 ). One must keep in mind, however, that the quantity of data here considered is so large it will tend to produce results with 100% reported posterior probability at each For each tree method, the rectangle at each node indicates agreement or disagreement with the consensus tree on the implied split at the node. Comparison with previously published trees is shown below. For nodes B, E, L, and P, the previously published trees agree with either our consensus phylogeny or a single alternative hypothesis: R. ferrumequinum above node G, C. sphinx above node C, M. schreibersii above node H, or M. leucogaster above node N, respectively. AA, amino acid sequence; C1-C3, the coding sequence restricted to those bases in the first, second, or third codon position, respectively; 100 manually inspected, phylogeny constructed using the longest 100 alignments after manual inspection for artifacts (none observed).
