Reassignment of the land tortoise haemogregarine Haemogregarina fitzsimonsi Dias 1953 (Adeleorina: Haemogregarinidae) to the genus Hepatozoon Miller 1908 (Adeleorina: Hepatozoidae) based on parasite morphology, life cycle and phylogenetic analysis of 18S rDNA sequence fragments – ERRATUM

Key words: terrestrial chelonian, tick-vector, herpetological haematozoan taxonomy, reptile apicomplexan phylogeny, Amblyomma, erratum.

In the above published article by Cook et al. Fig. 4 has been reproduced to a low resolution making it difficult to read. A higher quality illustration is published on the next page.

Fig. 4. Phylogenetic analysis, implemented in MEGA5, for Haemogregarinatzsimonsi Dias, 1953 (highlighted) against species of Hepatozoon, Haemogregarina and Hemolivia, with Adelina bambarooniae and Klossia helicina as an outgroup. Nodal support is provided by bootstrap values with only those >50 shown. (A) Maximum likelihood analysis under the conditions of the Tamura 3-parameter model. The tree with the highest log likelihood (− 1984·703) is shown. (B) Maximum parsimony analysis inferred from 11 648 most parsimonious trees.
