Phylogenetic tree based on the 12S gene of the new Onchocerca sp. Xapuri worm in Onchocercidae family. Phylogenetic tree inferred by maximum likelihood (403 characters, – Ln = 2,743.160330) of 12S sequences from 58 isolates belonging to the genus Onchocerca (yellow box) and 17 sequences that representing other genera/species from Onchocercidae family. Numbers at nodes are support values derived from 1,000 replicates in maximum likelihood analyses. Codes within parenthesis are GenBank accession numbers.
