Placement of Colemanus gen. n. with known relationships of extant taxa: A–C represent the three possible relationships between included Proteropini. Numbers on branches represent total tree length when Colemanus is placed at that location. Circled numbers are most parsimonious placements (most parsimonious in orange; second-most in blue). Number boxes are total tree lengths of that topology when Colemanus is excluded. Note that lowest tree lengths are always achieved when Colemanus is placed within Proteropini.
