From: To each his own: no evidence of gyrodactylid parasite host switches from invasive poeciliid fishes to Goodea atripinnis Jordan (Cyprinodontiformes: Goodeidae), the most dominant endemic freshwater goodeid fish in the Mexican Highlands

Phylogenetic tree of different Gyrodactylus species infecting teleost fishes. Shaded boxes indicate parasite clades infecting the following host groups: Goodea atripinnis (red), other goodeid fishes (yellow), and poeciliid fishes (green and blue). Fifty percent majority-rule consensus tree obtained from the Bayesian Inference analysis of the ITS1, 5.8S and ITS2 sequences from 23 species of Gyrodactylus. Bayesian posterior probabilities are shown above the nodes, and ML bootstrap support below the nodes. The phylogram is rooted with gyrodactylids infecting the characid Astyanax aeneus
