“…Also, it is not known if the unresolved trichotomy of cheirogalids, lepilemurids, and indriids represents a hard or soft polytomy (Yoder, 2003). For example, genetic studies of lemurs result in differing phylogenies depending on phylogenetic method (parsimony, maximum likelihood) and which genes are used (Delpero et al, 2001;Hapke et al, 2005;Pastorini et al, 2002). In addition, there is considerable debate regarding lorisid systematics (Groves, 2001;Masters et al, 2005;Yoder, 2005).…”
