Phylogenetic tree of the Myrsidea species based on concatenated partial COI and EF-1α sequences. The tree was inferred using the maximum likelihood method based on the GTR+G+I model. The tree with the highest log likelihood is shown. Bootstrap support is shown next to the branches (values < 50% not shown). The tree is drawn to scale, with branch lengths in proportion to expected number of substitutions per site, as represented by the scale bar. Samples of M. quadrifasciata discussed in the present paper are in bold type. –– Colours: green – samples from Ethiopian Region; red – samples from Neotropical Region; blue – samples from Nearctic Region.
