The Maximum likelihood phylogenetic tree was constructed based on the alignment of concatenated DNA sequences of the seven housekeeping genes. Clades 1–5 and C-I were already described and clades C-II and C-III are new. In clade C-II a strain with ST200 (toxinotype XXXII) is present and is described in our recent publication [36].
