Minnesota Which moths are eating which tropical shrubs? Plant phylogeny vs. faunal similiarity Is there phylogenetic structure in faunal similarity? patterns of herbivore association = feeding = not feeding alanga sexipunctalis (rambidae) Macaranga Oiketicus sp. (Psychidae) Psychotria host plant phylogeny George Weiblen, U. Minnesota host plant phylogeny faunal similarity phenogram lustering of host plants based on faunal similarity corresponds poorly with host plant phylogeny Nnone the less, some host plant clades have very similar caterpillar faunas (e.g. Macaranga and Psychotria) George Weiblen, U. Minnesota How to root an unrooted tree Outgroup If the mutation rate is constant in all lineages, the distance from root to leaf leaf is the same for all leaves. We can obtain a rooted tree algorithmically. Otherwise, use an outgroup, a taxon that is distantly related to all other leaf taxa. merican Scientist 4
