Figure 2

The Bayesian tree was constructed by concatenated aligned of Lagenidium spp. DNA sequences as in Figure 1 without outgroup to highlight the position of L. giganteum in the tree. L. giganteum from mammals (Lgp 1–11), L. giganteum mosquito control (Lgm 1–3 and Ls1 = HQ395647), and the novel species L. ajelloi = La, L. albertoi = Lal, and L. vilelae = Lv were placed in 4 strongly supported clades (arrows). Scale bar indicates nucleotide substitutions per site.
