A derived condition is seen in Phyllurus, in which the process is robust and domed (character 48). Ischium Character 49: Metischial processes narrowly separated from one another posteriorly (0) , or expanded posterolaterally, widely separated from one another (1). The posterior portion of the ischium bears a large, blade-Hke metischial process. The distance between the two metischial processes is generally small — less than the width of the ischiopubic fenestra in the Diplodactylini and the New Zealand and New Caledo- nian species of the carphodactylines (Fig. 11), as well as in Rhacodactylus (Pseudothecadactylus). The remaining carphodactylines share the synapomorphy of a much broadened and expanded ischium and metischial process (character 49). Hypoischium Character 50: Hypoischium slender and narrow A), or short and dagger-shaped B). Character 51: Hypoischium short (0), or extending posteriorly almost to level of vent (1) ..
