Fig.25B: Consensus solutions (top - strict algorithm; bottom - majority rule algorithm) resulting from 

 a parsimony analysis of the inversely weighted data matrix subdivided according to the region of 

 character origin: (B) orbit (25 characters, n = 334 trees, length = 10,032 steps, CI = 0.477, HI = 

 0.759, RI = 0.646, RC = 0.449). Lengths and goodness-of-fit statistics apply only to the majority rule 

 consensus solution, where, unless otherwise indicated, all nodes were found in 100% of the equally 

 most parsimonious solutions.
