From: Hepatozoon species (Adeleorina: Hepatozoidae) of African bufonids, with morphological description and molecular diagnosis of Hepatozoon ixoxo sp. nov. parasitising three Amietophrynus species (Anura: Bufonidae)

Figure 3

Phylogenetic position of Hepatozoon ixoxo sp. nov., based on 18S rDNA gene sequences. Tree topology was identical across Maximum Likelihood (ML), and Bayesian inference (BI). Therefore the nodal support values for each analysis (ML/BI) are represented on the ML tree. ML tree was constructed using PhyML under the parameters of the substitution model being TVM + G with 1000 Bootstrap replicates, the BI tree was constructed using MrBayes under the estimated parameters as part of the analysis. New hapanotypes are represented in bold. Distinct clades are represented in different colours (green/blue/orange).
