4.2. Systematics of Diandrya vancouverensis
Our combined and cox 1 trees separated D. vancouverensis and D. composita with high support ( Fig. 5 View Fig and Fig. S16). Wickstrom¨et al. (2005) placed D. composita in a clade with Paranoplocephala spp. and Vilas et al. (2005) reported pairwise sequence divergences of 0.1–5.9% and 5.2–18.4% at ITS1 and cox 1, respectively, among species pairs from Paranoplocephala . These values are comparable to the divergences between D. vancouverensis and D. composita for these genes (7.69 and 10.44%, respectively). Hence, this analysis supports the species classification of D. vancouverensis originally proposed based on its unique morphology ( Mace and Shepard, 1981).
