aUnder ‘Yeast strain’, the leading ‘Y’ and the following group of three or four numbers represent the host specimen (abbreviated in the main text and Table 3). The four letters following the hyphen represent the host species, the last two letters indicate the source organ (AM, adult mycangium; LG, larval guts).

bPercentages show the maximum similarity values to the nucleotide collection nr/nt database.

cITS and 26S rRNA sequences gave maximum similarity to the yeast symbiont isolated from mycangium of L. maculifemoratus in Japan (Tanahashi et al. 2010).
