A summary of the molecular phylogeny of the Lucilia species/subspecies based on the cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (cox1) gene sequences. The phylogenetic tree was created using Bayesian inference (BI) implemented in MrBayes v.3.2.6. The numbers above the branches represent the posterior probabilities. Each specimen is labelled with the species name, location and GenBank accession number. Mitochondrial (mt) genomes sequenced in this study are colour coded: Lucilia cuprina cuprina (QLD) in pink, Lucilia sericata (TAS) in green, Lucilia cuprina dorsalis (NSW) in brown, Lucilia cuprina dorsalis (VIC) in purple and Lucilia cuprina dorsalis (WA) in blue. The Lucilia cuprina cuprina, Lucilia sericata and Lucilia cuprina dorsalis clades are highlighted in orange, cyan and yellow colour, respectively. The phylogram provided is presented to scale (scale bar = 0.02 estimated number of substitutions per site) with the species Calliphora vicina used as the outgroup
