Galled networks, directed acyclic graphs that model evolutionary histories with reticulation cycles containing only tree nodes, have become very popular due to both their biological significance and the existence of polynomial time algorithms for their reconstruction. In this paper we prove that Nakhleh's $m$ measure is a metric for this class of phylogenetic networks and hence it can be safely used to evaluate galled network reconstruction methods.
