partially sequenced. The homologous sequence of three groups had been compared
to describe the phylogenetic position among them, as well as several other
species accessed from the Genbank. Total DNA extracted from the muscular tissue
had been obtained through tail cut sampling using the innuPREP DNA micro kit,
and amplified using a pair of universal primer, L14841 and H15149. The size of
the cyt b gene sequence amplified was 307 bp long. Sequence aligned using
CLUSTAL-X program and diversity analysis were done using version 5.2.2. MEGA5
program. Genetic distance had been calculated by Tamura 3 parameter method and
phylogenetic tree had been built using Neighbor-Joining and Maximum Likelihood
methods. Genetic distance based on cyt b gene nucleotide was found from 0 to 0.240
with an average of 0.080. The phylogenetic tree constructed by Neighbor
Joining and Maximum Likelihood methods indicated that </span><i><span style=\"font-family:Verdana;line-height:1.5;\">T</span></i><span style=\"font-family:Verdana;line-height:1.5;\">.</span><i><span style=\"font-family:Verdana;line-height:1.5;\"> tarsier</span></i><span style=\"font-family:Verdana;line-height:1.5;\">,
