“…Within lorisoids, our mitogenomic tree places Asian lorisids as the sister group to the African galagids rather than to the African lorisid Perodicticus . Both the lorisids and the papionins are well supported by morphological data and nuclear sequences, and previous studies employing mitochondrial sequences have shown similar difficulty in recovering such clades (Papionini: Disotell et al, 1992; Harris, 2000; Finstermeier et al, 2013; Lorisidae: Roos et al, 2004; Masters et al, 2007; Matsui et al, 2009; Finstermeier et al, 2013; Pozzi et al, accepted ). The mitochondrial genome represents a single locus and its phylogenetic history can differ from the species as a consequence of several events, including gene flow, hybridization, or incomplete lineage sorting (Maddison, 1997; Degnan and Rosenberg, 2006; Maddison and Knowles, 2006; Edwards, 2009).…”
