Bayesian phylogenetic tree of cytb gene sequences (379 nucleotides) of 33 Haemoproteus lineages and 3 Plasmodium lineages. One Leucocytozoon fringillinarum sequence was used as outgroup. Nodal support values indicate Bayesian posterior probabilities. The scale bar shows the expected substitutions per site. Lineage codes are given according to MalAvi database [5], followed by GenBank accession numbers in parentheses and parasite species names. Haemoproteus parasites used in this study are shown in bold
