Cladogram for Wolbachia phylogenetic relationships inferred from wsp gene sequences; sequences already known from Culicoides are indicated with white diamonds; new wsp gene sequences of Wolbachia-infected Culicoides obtained in the present study are indicated with black diamonds. Accession numbers followed by host species are shown at terminal nodes. The tree is drawn to scale, with branch lengths measured in the number of substitutions per site. Maximum likelihood (ML) bootstrap support values over 50% are displayed on the nodes. Abbreviations: I-WB, clade I-Wolbachia supergroup B; II-WB, clade II-Wolbachia supergroup B; III-WA, clade III-Wolbachia supergroup A; IV-WA, clade IV-Wolbachia supergroup A; And, Andalucía; Ast, Asturias; Cas, Castilla la Mancha; Cat, Catalonia
