Figure 3. Phylogenetic interrelationships among 31 sequences from members of Alaria (syn. Pharyngostomoides) based on BI analysis of partial cox1 mtDNA gene sequences. BI posterior probability values lower than 80% are not shown. The new sequences generated in this study are indicated in bold. The scale bar indicates the number of substitutions per site. The information on biogeographical realms and families of definitive hosts is provided only for taxa confirmed with sequence data. Abbreviations of biogeographical realms: N, Nearctic; P, Palaearctic. Abbreviations of family of definitive host: Can, Canidae; Fel, Felidae; Mep, Mephitidae; Mus, Mustelidae; Pro, Procyonidae. ‡ All collected specimens are immature. § Previously identified as A. americana by Locke et al.
