亚科 Limenitidinae 的种系发生的分析基于 mtDNA 细胞色素 oxidase 子单元的 1 471 bp 被执行我( COI )从跨越 9 个类的 21 个个人被获得的基因顺序数据,与那些一起从 GenBank 获得的 17 种类用 Apatura 虹, Aglais urticae ,并且 Polyura dolon 是外集团种类。尽管在 COI 数据集合的第三个 codon 位置的转变高度被浸透,当他们包含种系发生的信息的多数,他们仍然为分析被保留,并且这样,在不同 weighting 计划和最大的可能性的( ML )下面的最大的 pasimony ( MP )树在这研究被重建。结果证明在这个亚科以内,基于 COI,基因定序的结果与传统的分类结果近似相同。然而,象与弱支持在类 Neptis 以内聚类 Phaedyma aspasia 一样在类 Euthalia 以内聚类 Lexias pardalis 和 Tanaecia julii 与中国学者做的当前的分类计划的不同。类 Limenitis 被分成在树上的二 subclusters 由使用 MP 和 ML 方法构造了。这些结果在 Limenitidinae 以内为部落关系支持最强壮的假设之一。
The phylogenetic analyses of the subfamily Limenitidinae are performed based on 1 471 bp of mtDNA cytochrome oxidase subunit I (COI) gene sequence data which were obtained from 21 individuals spanning 9 genera, along with those of 17 species obtained from GenBank, using Apatura iris, Aglais urticae, and Polyura dolon as outgroup species. Although the transitions at the third codon positions of the COI data set were highly saturated, they were still retained for analysis as they contain the majority of the phylogenetic information, and thus, the maximum pasimony (MP) under different weighting schemes and maximum likelihood (ML) trees were reconstructed in this study. The results showed that within this subfamily, the results based on the COI gene sequences are approximately identical to the traditional classification results. However, the clustering of Lexias pardalis and Tanaecia julii within the genus Euthalia as well as the clustering of Phaedyma aspasia within the genus Neptis with weak support are different from that of the current classification scheme made by Chinese scholars. The genus Limenitis is splited into two subclusters in the trees constructed by using MP and ML methods. These results support one of the strongest hypotheses for the tribe relationships within Limenitidinae.
