Consensus phylogram of the ITS1 and partial 18S rRNA gene regions from Hematodinium-infected crustaceans (maximum likelihood estimation, 1000 bootstrap replicates). Genomic DNA was isolated from the haemolymph of infected shore crabs across two locations (prefix P, Pier location; prefix D, Dock location) in Swansea Bay, UK (GenBank: MN057783–MN057918, see Additional file 1: Table S4 for individual numbers), and probed via PCR for Hematodinium diversity. Reference nucleotide sequences for Hematodinium from various crustacean hosts (see methods for full list) were retrieved from GenBank. The spheres/numbers at the nodes indicate bootstrap support (%) received for each partition. The tree was rooted using the corresponding region from Amoebophyra species (GenBank: HM483395, HQ658161, HM483394, MK681270). Postfix: C, China; D, Denmark; G, Greenland
