Fig 1.
An SSU rDNA-based Bayesian phylogenetic tree representing the most likely new Herpetomonas species obtained from a mosquito collected in Eastern Austria.
Bootstrap values from Bayesian posterior probabilities (5 million generations) and bootstrap percentages for maximum-likelihood (PhyML) analysis (1,000 replicates) are shown at the nodes; dashes indicate <50% bootstrap support or different topology; asterisks mark branches with maximal statistical support; double-crossed branches are 50% of the original length. The tree was rooted with five sequences of Phytomonas spp., the closest relative of the genus Herpetomonas. Parasite names, names of strains or GenBank accession numbers are given; the branch lengths are drawn proportionally to the amount of changes (scale bar).

Number of mosquito pools positive for trypanosomatid DNA (trypanosome species, T. avium, T. culicavium, and T. theileri, are shown separately while Crithidia spp. infections are combined) according to the sampled months in 2014 and 2015 (Vienna and Eastern Austria).
