Figure 4.  An illustration from Baldauf (2003) that presents a consensus phylogeny of the eukaryotes.  This diagram summarizes ultrastructural and molecular data.  The dotted lines indicate ciPCR "taxa".  Asterisks indicate likely paraphyletic groups.  This diagram suggests that the Archezoa Hypothesis, in all of its forms, likely is dead.
