Cladograms resulting from cladistic analysis. Species terminals are labeled with species epithet and three-letter abbreviation of relevant generic or subgeneric name: Neo, Neonomius Moore; Par, Paratrichothorax Baehr; Epe, Epelyx Blackburn; Amb, Amblytelus Blackburn; Dys, Dystrichothorax Baehr; Euc, Eucyclothorax Liebherr; Qec, Qecyclothorax Liebherr; Meo, Meonochilus Liebherr and Marris; Pha, Phacothorax Jeannel; Mec, Mecyclothorax Sharp. Areas occupied by the included taxa are indicated by abbreviations following species epithets: Bo, Borneo; EOZ, eastern Australia, i.e. restricted to east of the Nullarbor Plain; FP, French Polynesia, Tahiti; HI, Hawaiian Islands, Maui; Jv, Java; LH, Lord Howe Island; NC, New Caledonia; Nf, Norfolk Island; NNZ, North Island of New Zealand; NZ, generally distributed across New Zealand; OZ, generally distributed across Australia; PNG, Papua New Guinea; QOZ, restricted to Queensland, Australia; SNZ, South Island of New Zealand plus Chatham Islands; SP&A, St. Paul and Amsterdam Islands; WOZ, western Australia, i.e. restricted to west of the Nullarbor Plain. A. Strict consensus cladogram of 2 equally most-parsimonious trees. Green-colored terminals represent mainland Australian taxa. B. Resolved cladistic relationships of 11 Mecyclothorax (Eucyclothorax) spp. represented in all cladograms. Character numbers are shown to left of cladogram edges, character states to right. Filled boxes represent characters that change to the indicated state only once on cladogram.
