Neighbor-joining tree showing the relationships among species of Hippocampus based on mtDNA sequences. A tree produced using multiple loci (cytochrome b, 16S rRNA, and 12S rRNA) as partitions B tree produced using 12S rRNA, only. Numbers in branches indicate bootstrap probabilities obtained from 1000 bootstrap replications. Scale bar = genetic distance of 0.02.
