The single gene trees and the combined tree all recovered
Pavelius smileyi sp. nov., Paramytha schanderi gen. et sp. nov. and
Paramytha sp. as monophyletic with maximum support, and Para-
mytha schanderi gen. et sp. nov. and Paramytha sp. as sister species
(Fig. 2; Supplementary Material, Figs S1–S3). The concatenated tree
recovers Ampharetidae as paraphyletic with high support, with
Melinna albicincta (Ampharetidae, Melinninae) as sister to Alvinella
caudata (Alvinellidae)þAmpharetinae, and with both Paramytha
gen. nov. and Pavelius recovered well within the subfamily
Ampharetinae. Paramytha gen. nov. shows no close connection to
any of the other genera included in the analysis.
