Taxonomic position of Malayfilaria sofiani n. g., n. sp., inferred using the maximum-likelihood method, based on cox1 nucleotide sequences. The tree was based on the Tamura-Nei model, which was selected as the best model (MEGA6) with 500 replicates. The percentage of replicate trees in which the associated taxa clustered together is shown next to the branches. Values > 50% are shown. The tree is drawn to scale, with branch lengths corresponding to the number of substitutions per site. There were a total of 569 positions in the final dataset. The scale-bar below the diagram indicates the number of changes inferred as having occurred along each branch. The red triangles indicate the sequences generated in this study
