a Phylogenetic relationships of bat ticks collected in the present study (accession number in inverse colour) based on COI gene and related data from the GenBank. Light yellow background indicates isolates of I. vespertilionis, with overlaying background colours according to geographical regions as indicated. Purple background colour stands for genotypes of I. ariadnae, and pink for those of I. simplex. b Phylogenetic relationships of bat species that were hosts of the tick species (according to the colour code of the tick phylogenetic tree) analysed in the present study. Branch lengths correlate to the number of substitutions inferred according to the scale shown
