Phylogenetic tree from 50% majority rule bootstrap consensus tree of parsimony analysis

Phylogenetic tree from 50% majority rule bootstrap consensus tree of parsimony analysis. When Juracanthocephalus is included in the matrix, the results recover Seisonidea as the sister group to Juracanthocephalus + all extant acanthocephalans (a); when Juracanthocephalus is excluded from the morphological matrix, the results support the Seisonidea as the sister group of all other Rotifera (b).
