Figure 2. Molecular phylogenetic analysis by the maximum likelihood method using exon 2 of the gp 43 region. The evolutionary history was inferred using the maximum likelihood method based on the Kimura 2-parameter model. The tree with the highest log likelihood is shown. The percentage of trees in which the associated taxa clustered together is shown next to the branches. The tree is drawn to scale, with branch lengths measured in the number of substitutions per site. The analysis involved 11 nucleotide sequences. Evolutionary analyses were conducted in MEGA7. The species names were concordant with the latest accepted taxonomies for the species (old and recent species names).
