Maximum Likelihood phylogenetic tree based on 40 partial 23S-5S sequences, with 22 sequences originating from Kazakh ticks and 18 from GenBank. Nine sequences from Kazakh ticks were 100% identical to R. raoultii, two sequences were identical to R. slovaca. Nine sequences Yenbekshikazakh district formed a new cluster “Candidatus Rickettsia yenbekshikazakhensis“. There were a total of 367 positions in the final dataset. The tree with the highest log-likelihood (-1572.3294) is shown
