Bayesian Inference phylogenetic reconstruction of Octocorallia inferred from the concatenation of the mitochondrial gene regions mtMutS and COI. Node circles correspond to Bayesian posterior probability (≥ 0.8) and node values correspond to Maximum Likelihood bootstrap values (≥ 80). The tree was rooted to Cornularia pabloi. Taxa for which new sequences were obtained from our SA Red Sea collection are in red, and red dots next to them indicate new records for the Red Sea. Numbered squares on tree branches indicate clades corresponding to those discussed in9. (a-b) Order Malacalcyonacea (c) Order Scleralcyonacea. A selection of the specimens sequenced for this study is presented here for clarity of the figure, the full phylogenetic tree including all the newly generated SA Red Sea sequences for this study is available as Supplementary Material 2.
