Levinton, J.S., C. Sturmbauer, and J.H. Christy (1996) Molecular data and biogeography: Resolution of a controversy over evolutionary history of a pan-tropical group of invertebrates. Journal of Experimental Marine Biology and Ecology 203(1):117–131.

The phylogeny shown in this paper is drawn from the companion paper [[Sturmbauer1996]], which includes two species not mentioned in the data table in this paper, a otherwise not mentioned subspecific name for another, and treats the subgenera as separate genera.
