Reviewer/Referee Access Agreement

You have reached this page using a special URL that is intended to be used by journal editors and reviewers or referees of a paper that is under consideration for publication. This URL gives you access to the submitted data and metadata associated with analyses and results presented in the paper under review. Please carefully examine the data paying special attention to the following:

The citation data (authors, year, citation, abstract) should be complete, except for information that is not yet known (e.g. volume or page numbers).
Verify that nexus files are error-free and executable by software programs (e.g. PAUP, Mesquite, MacClade, etc). Please make sure that the taxon labels for trees are identical, or a subset of, the taxon labels in data matrices connected by way of an analysis. If taxon labels in trees do not match with taxon labels in associated data matrices, the data will not be useful to the scientific community.
Verify that data are not missing and that opportunities to supply valuable metadata are not overlooked. For example, TreeBASE can store Genbank accession numbers, museum voucher IDs, latitude and longitudes for specimen localities, character names and character state names for morphological data, etc. Including these metadata are sometimes overlooked by submitting authors, yet sharing this metadata is extremely valuable to the scientific community. Please use your power as a reviewer to encourage the sharing of richly-annotated metadata.
Verify that analyses are not missing and that, where possible, analysis entries include software commands (e.g. the contents of a PAUP block or MrBayes block) so that analyses can be replicated easily (e.g. commands that describe substitution models, data partitions, and heuristic search parameters).
Verify that taxon labels are mapped against TreeBASE's taxonomic dictionary. Data in TreeBASE can only be found using a taxon name search if the taxon labels are properly mapped.

By clicking the 'OK' button below, you agree to keep these data confidential; you agree not to retain these data after completing your report to the journal editor; you agree not to use these data or knowledge of these data for the purposes of your research until and unless the paper under review has been published and the data have been made available to the general public; you agree to keep the URL confidential.

Abstract

Staurozoan classification is highly subjective, based on phylogeny-free inferences, and suborders, families, and genera are commonly defined by homoplasies. Additionally, many characters used in the taxonomy of the group have ontogenetic and intraspecific variation, and demand new and consistent assessments to establish their correct homologies. Consequently, Staurozoa is in need of a thorough systematic revision. The aim of this study is to propose a comprehensive phylogenetic hypothesis for Staurozoa, providing the first phylogenetic classification for the group. According to our working hypothesis based on a combined set of molecular data (mitochondrial markers COI, 16S, and nuclear markers ITS, 18S, and 28S), the traditional suborders Cleistocarpida (animals with claustrum) and Eleutherocarpida (animals without claustrum) are not monophyletic. Instead, our results show that staurozoans are divided into two groups, herein named Amyostaurida and Myostaurida, which can be distinguished by the absence/presence of interradial longitudinal muscles in the peduncle, respectively. We propose a taxonomic revision at the family and genus levels that preserves the monophyly of taxa. We provide a key for staurozoan genera and discuss the evolution of the main characters used in staurozoan taxonomy.
