Table 4 Percent pairwise genetic distances between Acanthocotyle spp. for LSU rRNA gene (under the diagonal) and the mitochondrial cox1 gene (above the diagonal)

From: Two new species of Acanthocotyle Monticelli, 1888 (Monogenea: Acanthocotylidae), parasites of two deep-sea skates (Elasmobranchii: Rajiformes) in the South-East Pacific
