Maximum Likelihood phylogenetic tree of Platypelis and Cophyla, based on a fragment of the mitochondrial 16S rRNA gene (total alignment length 633 bp, of which 301 bp available for the new taxon). Numbers at nodes are support values in percent from a bootstrap analysis (500 pseudoreplicates). Madecassophryne cf. truebae was used as the outgroup. Cophyla sp. ‘fortuna’ (formerly C. sp. Ca04) is under description by Rakotoarison et al. (in press).
