Fast-evolving mitochondrial DNA in Ceriantharia: a reflection of hexacorallia paraphyly?
The low evolutionary rate of mitochondrial genes in Anthozoa has challenged their utility for phylogenetic and systematic purposes, especially for DNA barcoding. However, the evolutionary rate of Ceriantharia, one of the most enigmatic "orders" within Anthozoa, has never been specifically...
