Figure 10

Hierarchical clustering of Paralia species based on SEM morphometrics. Representative clones were selected based on methods described in the text. The identity and taxonomic affiliation of each clone or sample (in parenthesis) are presented to the right of the cluster diagram. The assigned morpho-cluster and molecular clade (see below) and character state of separation valve face are indicated to the right. Multiscale bootstrap values (AU) are shown as p-values (multiplied by 100) generated from 10000 bootstrap samples; p ≥ 0.95 is considered statistically significant. Distance is equal to 1-correlation so that nodes closer to 0.00 are morphologically more similar. 1 = [10]; 2 = [6]; 3 = P. sulcata s.s., P. ehrmanii and P. obscura have not been genetically defined.
