From: Faecal DNA to the rescue: Shotgun sequencing of non-invasive samples reveals two subspecies of Southeast Asian primates to be Critically Endangered species

  1. Values represent number of molecular Operational Taxonomic Units (mOTUs). N represents number of species (include those resurrected in this study), X the slope parameter. Colours: green: all resurrected species are valid. Purple: Supports splitting of the three subspecies of Presbytis femoralis and splitting of P. siamensis cf. cana. However, some sequences of P. f. femoralis from Peninsular Malaysia are split into multiple mOTUs. Orange: Resurrection of all three subspecies of P. femoralis is valid, but P. s. cf. cana is lumped with other Presbytis species. Red: Not valid.
