Phylogenetic tree using a bootstrap analysis for the Rickettsia felis found in mosquitoes from the USA. The names of Rickettsia species and their GenBank Accession numbers are provided. The sequences of R. felis identified in this study (in bold; red for cats and blue for dogs) were 99.0–100% identical to the recognized R. felis strains, 94.0% (R. asembonensis) and 95.7% (R. senegalensis) identical to R. felis-like organisms, and 84.0–94.7% identical to other Rickettsia spp.
